Hi........ First time poster here - rank, smelly newbie.......... ;-(
With your premission, I'd like to ask for a little advice here. I just bought an all but brand new Marlin Golden 39AS, made around 1994 (I think) and would like to add a receiver sight to it. The receiver IS D & T for a receiver sight.
Problem is I was told Williams' receiver sights won't work on a 39 : "This sight will not fit current manufacture 39A rifles with a rebounding hammer and hammer block safety."
Is this for real? Any way around it? Can't use a tang sight because the serial number is on the tang.
Thanks.....
Bill
