Purchased my first Marlin Model Golden 39A .22 Cal. Rifle last week. If it lasts as long as my Glenfield Marlin Mod 60, which I purchased in 1968, I’ll be very pleased with it.
I received the Skinner brass rear peep sight that I ordered about a week ago based upon feedback in the forum. It had some scratches on it which appeared to occur during shipping. A little 400/600 grit paper, polish and 20 minutes and I had it looking extraordinary again. Looks great mounted on the 39A with the gold plated trigger.
Field stripped and cleaned, I sighted it in (elevation only) at the range without any difficulty and put 200 assorted rounds through it with only 1 FTF. Does NOT appear to be very finicky about what it eats. All in all it was an excellent first outing.
