Pokerdand;

A Marlin Model 39 with the "S" prefix would have been made sometime between 1925 and 1932. With the 12,000 serial number range following the prefix, would indicate it was made in the later part of the time frame, probably even in 1932.
Due to the increasing cost of ammunition, there will be no warning shot!

The growing federal deficit = generational slavery to the national debt.
