    The Marlin 39 Club

    Pardon my ignorance, but when was the last Marlin Golden 39A manufactured? I did a search of the site and could not find any info. Not interested in Remlins, just a JM rifle. I live in Connecticut and purchased a 39A in 2007 thinking that was going to be about it for Marlin. Put a Skinner...

    I would love to know what is going on. Now Remington's custom shop is Dakota Arms, they make some nice stuff. But as tubeshooter has pointed out "where's the beef"? The picture that is posted is the spitting image of my 2007 39A which I purchased for $430. I had heard that Remington was...

    Hey Guys, I just had a positive Remington experience. I purchased a 2005 39A NIB in 2007. A good gun, accurate, feeds all ammo, fit and finish pretty good, a five pound trigger (blah) that has smoothed out to 4 pounds. Way back when, I purchased a Skinner Sight and put it on...

    Frank I read back a few pages and got a better picture of what you're going thru. If you're going to shoot at 50 yards just send the scope to Leupold and let them set things up. I would also try adjusting the reticle one more time. You should be able to get a more or less decent focus. Kind...

    Frank I didn't catch what scope you had but, most are set for parallax free at 100 yds. If you buy a "rimfire" scope then it is usually set for 50 yards. Leupold, at least for me, a few years ago, reset a VX-3 to 50 yard parallax free, for free. I've been buying AO scopes lately and you'll...

    On my gun I noticed that Marlin made a fairly poor attempt at gold inlay. Since the gun has a gold trigger I thought that I might improve the "Origional Golden-39A" stamp. I used a Forster gold inlay filling kit. $12 from Midway and 10 minutes time

    I put a little TW-25 lube on the hammer/trigger surfaces which resulted in a 1 pound reduction in trigger pull to 4#. Better yet it has smoothed out the feel of the trigger. No more "pushing a refrigerator across the floor" feel. I've got about 100 rounds fired now and I sort of like the heavy...

    Congrats! It's nice to talk about things that make us happy. Thanks, ArmedBear I'll toss a little lube in there. I think that there is a super slick lube that folks put on sears but I can't really remember the name, Trigger Slick maybe. I really don't want to over focus on the trigger, I...

    Hi: Thanks. I put 20 rounds thru her this morning. No problems, with 10 rounds within an inch at 25 yards using Aguila Rifle Match. I find that it's easier to sight if the gold dot on the front post is illuminated but that's hard to achieve with the hood installed (but it looks good). The...

    Hi Guys: I just purchased a new 39A today, not a single round thru it yet just cleaning and inspecting at the moment. At first glance I think that I've got myself a good gun,good wood, good barrel crown, 5# trigger with a little creep; not a Cooper but then not the price of a Cooper. I'll get...
