    The Marlin 39 Club

    Hello - Goodby Hey all, As a longtime member of this club, I regret to announce my resignation. I have been active in this club since 2007, but I was only on the us forum, and for personal reasons I do not want to be active in this one. Seems the clubhouse over there has been boarded up...

    2009 New Years Eve Rimfire Match

    I put the picture of my target back up. My arms are sore this evening from holding up the rifle. I was sitting at a bench, and would pick it up, get my aim, fire, and put it back down. Sometimes I would aim, re-aim, check the star I was shooting, re-aim, re-check, then put it down without...

    2009 New Years Eve Rimfire Match

    I'll Play Went out this morning, cloudy, 40 degrees F, wind blowing left to right across the range about 10-15 MPH. It took me probably 30 minutes to shoot the twenty four shots, I had to stop and rest, let my arms get some blood back in them. Whoever thought of shooting the "sporting group"...

    The Marlin 39 Club

    Sgw42 I think the Marlin will fit your need very well. It is a very high quality firearm, well made and the designed has been for proven over a hundred years. I have shot lots of different ammo through mine and have not had a problem, beyond some bulk ammo failing to fire, but I think you...

    State authorities asking gun owners to allow guns to be test fired.

    Here's a question. What if you get the letter but don't go in for the voluntary testing? Are you then a suspect for failure to "help" them solve this crime?

    Rimfire Leveraction Postal Match

    Thanks for asking. I haven't had much time to get out to the range and the one time I did, I got the ShakyJake counting syndrome where I put six rounds in one side, and four in another. I was hoping I'd get some more range time, but I couldn't work around some other problems. In 2006 I...

    Rimfire Leveraction Postal Match

    This looks like a fun shoot with the 25 shots on one target. Open to all levers will really be interesting, just hope I can move out of the basement for this one. I know I will have my work cut out for me, I may even let my wife enter again. :scrutiny: Thanks for putting this on Mo, I...

    The Marlin 39 Club

    John, Is that supposed to be printed on a 8.5 X 11 in standard sheet of paper? That would be a good target in my opinion, easy to print and easy to mail. It is fairly large, are you still wanting to do 25 yards of move this one out to 50? I would be okay with either, as you can see from my...

    Marlin 39 Postal Match 2

    Woo hoo, last place!!! Take that Frank! :neener: Seems the best I could do as the Duke was not as good as the best I could do on a bench. But the worst I could do as the Duke was better (worse?) then the worst I could do on a bench. Okay, I’m confused now. :confused: Congratulations to...

    Marlin 39 shooters!

    I do not have a .22 handgun, but you guys feel free to set up a two gun match. Maybe you could expand it to other lever guns to increase the participation.

    Marlin 39 Postal Match 2

    Maybe if I had some extra points, I wouldn't be beaten by a girl... :o Annie Oakley huh? Women just seem to be inherently better shots then men IMHO, she has only been to the range with me twice before to shoot the Marlin, and the last time we were shooting clay birds at 50 yards and she...

    Marlin 39 Postal Match 2

    Am I the only one so far to take a sweetheart out shooting for the St. Valentine's Day post card match? If so, do I get extra points? :D

    Marlin 39 Postal Match 2

    Out of how many shooters so far? I was pretty sure my freestyle card was better. But as I learned in the last match, you never know until you measure it. I had a nice three shot triangle, quite close, and my wife had three shots on a horizontal line that had her furthest two further than...

    Don't worry, I'll drop my cards in the mail today and then you can stop worrying about last place. :p
