    The Marlin 39 Club

    No rifle yet Geno. Am getting anxious;) They said it would take 10-14 days, not sure why so long as it's only got to go from Michigan to Minnesota. I suspect (hope) it will be here the end of the week?

    The Marlin 39 Club

    Thanks again. Now someone needs to inform me as to what ammunition is safe to shoot in these things. I do believe I read to stear clear of certain ammo, high velocity stuff. Is that true or can I feed it anything I want? I guess I have a 10-14 day wait until the rifle is in my hands so I'll...

    The Marlin 39 Club

    OK, bonus check comes next week. Time to get serious about finding a Marlin 39!!! Any suggestions on where to start looking on-line. Do not want to go with a new production model so I suspect an on-line gun auction site or seller would be the best route. Any suggestions on reputable on line gun...

    The Marlin 39 Club

    Thanks for the input. I kinda like a rifle with a few dings and nicks and such, give a gun some character. Don't really care for the checkered furniture on the newer rifles, but if I don't find a used rifle to my liking may have to go that route. The search begins;)

    The Marlin 39 Club

    Hello, I'm new here and figured this would be the best place to post me questions on the Marlin 39 series rifle. Currently I am shooting a Henry .22 for small game and plinking and would like to purchase a Marlin 39 model rifle. Wondering what I should look for at local gun shows and on-line...
