1989. Subtract the first 2 digits from 11 from 100. Sounds like a nice
gun!

Dond;

The "C" in the "CS" is the style of rifle, in this case it will resemble a carbine. The "S" stands for the Cross Bolt Safety. All lever action Marlins had the "S" designation added to the Model number after the cross bolt safety was added in 1984. (i.e. the Model 39-A became the Model 39-AS)
I hope this helps.
