Good Morning:
I am new to this forum. I look forward to learning more about vintage Marlin firearms!
In the mid to late 1960's, my family won a Marlin 30 Carbine lever rifle Model 62 in a raffle. Since the 60's, it has fired less than 20 rounds and is in mint condition. Unfortunately I no longer have the original manual, and I am trying to acquire the manual for this rifle.
I am also interested in identifying the date of manufacture. "AB 4096" is stamped on the barrel. Unfortunately I can't seem to attach photos...
I would greatly appreciate any help with this.
Thanks!

AB prefix should be 1966 mfg. date.

Thank you marlinman93!
Would you know where/how I might find an original copy of the manual for this rifle?

I've seen them on Ebay occasionally. They don't usually go too high, and often are just buy it now, not an auction.
