Your Marlin Model '92 is a black powder gun, so you can shoot it, just be sure to use standard velocity or target ammunition in it. Modern high speed ammunition can crack the breech bolt.

The barrel serial number was 51462. On page 368 of the Brophy Marlin book, there is a parts breakdown of a Model 17, which ...

Re: Glenfield/Marlin model 50
RRC; I can find only 2 references to a Model 50. One is Marlin's first semi-auto .22 caliber rifle manufactured between 1931 and 1935. The other is a Model 50 Glenfield 12 gauge shotgun manufactured between 1966 and 1979. Is there any way possible for you to post photos of the rifle and the barrel m...

Re: manufacturing date
Bob; A Model 1897 will not have a letter "S" prefix to the serial number. A Model 39, which was the model that followed the Model 1897 did have letter prefixes. If your rifle is a Model 39 (marked on the upper tang, behind the hammer ) and has the letter "S" as a prefix, then it ...

Re: 12ga, Marlin Model 90 and Ranger 103-10 with 30" Barrels
BarkeyVA;
According to the old Marlin catalogs, right up to the end of production, the Model 90 in all gauges ( except the .410 ) was chambered for the 2 3/4 inch shells only. The .410 was chambered for the 3 inch shells.

Re: Model 81receiver sight
Rook:
The proper Lyman receiver sight for a Marlin Model 81is the model 57MR or the Marlin 12R is another. You might check eBay as sights do show up there from time to time.
Good luck........

Re: ROLL MARK ON A MODEL 30, 16 GAUGE BARREL
BUSSMAN69; Page 352 of Brophy shows a chart with the patent dates for each model of the Marlin shotguns. Now it may be possible that your Model 30 is early enough in production that a correct marked barrel was not available and the Model 16 barrel was installed. Marlin was not a company that let par...

CanuckleHead; This is an easy one, your Marlin Model 336 was manufactured in 1972. The first two digits of the serial number indicate the year of manufacture. Marlin did this for a short time, but dealers complained that using the first two digits of the serial number was "dating" the inve...

Re: 1881 Ejector
Villachaise; Your Marlin Model 1881 is too early for the factory records, but Marlin did make some Model 1881's with a 26 inch barrel. To be sure, it should measure exactly 26 inches. There is no plus or minus on the Model 1881 barrel length, unlike later Marlin rifles that can vary as much as 1/8 t...

Re: Marlin model 97
CrestTactial; A Model '97 with a serial number in the 374,000 range would have been made sometime about 1907. Records end at 355,300 in December of 1906, so your gun was made just after that. If you need screws, contact Larry Osborn. He information can be found in the section of the website titled &...
