These weren't built in the late 1850's. smile



I forgot to mention that mine was a prototype that was built a hundred years before full production happened. Just because you were born in the 1900's doesn't mean you know everything.


I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!

When that happens at car auctions we all just figure the spare tire is full of coke. lol Don't think you could get enough coke in a 336 to justify that selling price!

Final bid was just over $10K, that's insane! Unless it comes with a box of ammo! LOL

I saw this on Gunbroker yesterday. It was on the hot items page. I looked at it with great interest.. It was in pristine shape and had the rarer 20 inch barrel, but as far as I could tell there was nothing about it that would warrant that money.

Im no Marlin expert, but I know guns. The only time I am not online buying guns is when I'm at a gunshow buying guns. Its definately very strange and the fact that it was talked about here proves that.
