Marlin model 39

Post by Bigsully58 »

Just picked up a Model 39 with serial # HS3845. Case colored with octagon barrel. Pretty decent condition for age. Can anyone help with year of manufacture? I am assuming very old due to 4 digit serial number. Mike

Mike;

The "HS"serial number prefix indicates your Marlin Model 39 was made sometime between 1932 and 1939. Within the range in the 3800, probably late 1932 or early 1933.
Due to the increasing cost of ammunition, there will be no warning shot!

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

If the world was perfect.......it wouldn't be.
