I think the "Black Gold" on a 39 would go real well with these.
Those ain't mine but I do admire em.

I recently found out about this particular thread. WOW! Never knew these 39A's were so popular.
My first ever purchase with my own money was a brand new 39A, from Sears if I recall, back in the early 80's. I put thousands of rounds thru it then sold in the late 80's.
I bought another one couple years back but didn't shoot it much till recently. It shoots great but it has a VERY heavy trigger pull and the action seems a bit roughish. It just seems kinda rough and draggy when you cycle rounds thru it.
Does anyone know of a really good Marlin 39A "smith" that can maybe lighten the trigger pull and polish and or smooth out the action? If this is the wrong place to ask, my apologizes.
Thank you for any and all help

Yup. A few guns that did not pan out, but plenty of gems. When you get a deal and a gem. Wahoo!I've had a number of rifles I felt for a short time I may have paid too much for only to discover that I wouldn't part with them for many times the price. I'm pretty sure too at the end of my days I'm not going to be too worried about those few extra dollars, instead I'll be glad for the memories I made with what they bought.
Very good looking gun Scott. We have two things in common - both from the "country" in MN and both own 39's. Glad to see you shoot that piece....thats why I own 'em too.I I agree with Mo. Some may think I paid too much for this one. But I've never thought so.
Anyways, nobody could ever buy it from me for any amount of money.
-Scott.
P.S. I put about 6000 rounds through it in the last year. I took this picture of it yesterday.
I don't have it just to own it and look at it. I shoot it a lot!
