I have an older Marlin 336 in 30-30. Perhaps about 1976. Was marked $275 and I paid $250, so I am in agreement with other replies. Thinking about a simple fun project: strip the finish and applying some dark walnut stain and oil to make it look a little beat up and older instead of the skimpy blah-blah factory finish. Shoots pretty darn well and no cross bolt safety either.
