HV, your Marlin Model 1936 was made in 1937 based on the serial number you have provided. The Model 1936 was made in both 1936 & 1937. There were actually two variations. The first variation had a long tang, serial numbers without a "B" prefix, fluted comb and no Bull's Eye in the stock. The second variation had a short tang, serial numbers with a "B" prefix, plain comb and a Bull's Eye in the stock. Hope this helps!
