    .22 Tube magazine speed loaders?

    I forgot to mention that the Spee D Loader came with a flyer stating that they now sell a belt mounted pouch to carry it in. Don't have one, but I know some people have said it is needed when in the field...

    Independence Month Rimfire Match

    I may be slow, but I don't understand the scoring... how does the "1pt. per box as it approaches the center, for a maximum of 7 for the area in the center of the target (four squares in size) " work? Thanks.

    Appleseed report

    They mentioned it at the AS I went to and the reason was two fold, first in order for them to keep a safe fireing line (which at some Appleseeds they can have 50-100 shooters) they want all guns unloaded and on the ground at the firing line and the second reason was Safety Rule #1 (keep the...

    Appleseed this weekend!

    essayons21, I just went to an Appleseed this weekend w/ my 39A. I was only able to be there on Saturday, but I was doing okay. You are at a disadvantage w/ the lever action because you break your position after every shot instead of just once for the mag change on a semi. The tube...

    Can someone tell me what an upper is?

    I'm fairly new to rifles in general but I think I have answered that question w/ a quick google search. However, I am wondering why people sell uppers (basically receiver and barrel, is that right?) and not whole rifles. Is it just so people can build a custom gun or are there legal...

    What's a Marlin 39A worth?

    Did the second hole look like a bullseye (maybe it just looked like a hole)? Marlin guns have a white ring with a dark circle about 3/8" diameter in front of the stock sling stud. I believe this is on all of their rifles. A new one today from Cabelas or Gander Mountain will cost $550 or so...

    teaching adults to shoot

    As a new gun owner and adult I appreciate that you are going to help him out. I didn't have anyone to step up and show me the ropes but I have read a ton on THR, Rimfirecentral and Marlinowners.com. That has been a big help to read all the different opinions. I also called one of the firearm...

    22 Tracers... really?

    I was talking w/ a co-worker today and I joked around that I should get some .22 tracer rounds thinking there weren't any... a quick search on the web proved me wrong (even some youtube videos). They look like fun, but are expensive for .22 ammo. Anyone ever used these? I would imagine they...

    The Marlin 39 Club

    Good day at the range Well, I was able to take my new 39A out to the range tonight. This one did not have a single fail to extract out of 220 rounds. So much better than the first one I had (that was like 1 out of 6). I put the Skinner peep site on and just barely had to adjust the windage...

    The Marlin 39 Club

    Good News Here's an update on my 39A situation. I had put 200 rounds through a brand new 39A that I got from Gander Moutain (last one they had). I had about 1 in 7 fail to extract. Long story short, I took it back to Gander and they sent it back to Marlin. This weekend I was in Gander and...

    The Marlin 39 Club

    Okay, here is the latest on my 39A. I had it two weeks and took it to the range twice, tried 4 different types of ammo and followed Swany's instructions from marlinowners about tweaking the extractor w/ no help. So I call Marlin and they are going to send me an extractor, but it is on back...

    The Marlin 39 Club

    The Marlin rep I talked to on the phone last Thursday said he'd send me a mailing label to ship it to them. He also said he could send me an extractor. Should I have them send an extractor first? Also, how do I ship a rifle? Do I just ship it in the box it came in?

    The Marlin 39 Club

    Just got back from the range and had about 15 rounds fail to eject out of the chamber out of 50. I think I'll be sending it back to Marlin. I tried Reminton and Winchester ammo today. The Skinner sights were nice. I got them dialed in pretty quick and they are easier on the eyes than the...

    The Marlin 39 Club

    dfariswheel and chicharrones, Thanks for the info on the bolt. I feel better about it now. The weather looks better than forecasted this morning so I hope to go to the range this afternoon and find out if tweaking the extractor did the job. Oh, I just got in a Skinner rear sight so I'll be...

    The Marlin 39 Club

    Shoot, I was shooting the Federal Bulk pack from Walmart (they had the copper coating on the lead). I also shot a few rounds of the Remington Subsonics and had one of those fail to eject from the chamber. I think I've got it down to an ejector that needs "tuning" and the fact that my bolt...

    The Marlin 39 Club

    Thanks, Nem. There is a bunch of good info on that over there. I actually called Marlin (Remington) today and the guy on the phone was very helpful. He offered that I could send it in right away or he could send me a new extractor to put in myself. We chatted some more and I ended up...
