Thanks Jim.

Leverdude

Nice guns!

You'll need to do some metal work or parts changing if you want two straight grips though.

Leverdude

Nice bunch of guns!

Joes correct. The buttstock on that 336 should NOT be checkered. Its no big deal but if it bugs you just keep your eyes peeled for any modern straight grip Marlin buttstock, they should all fit.

its either a Maurauder or a texan.

Leverdude

I think I'd like a piece from deep inside where all them branches come together.

Leverdude

I'v got a pound of 2400 in one of those cans right now I'm working thru.
Surprisingly it chronyd right with the modern stuff.

Leverdude

I get to 2.6 & then unfired rounds wont eject. They feed from the tube but wont fit out the port.

Leverdude

Blaine, I think they just started making them that way in the last 4-5 years. :wink: Must be something to have some kind of .22 rimfire ammo that is so powerful that it needs a gas vent to protect the gun from harm. wowsers.., I think there were ruptures & the gas went straight back into the sh...

Leverdude

Yup, thats a gas vent. If you look at the other flat bolt Marlins the front of the bolt has a relief on the top & bottom to do the same thing. For whatever reason they didn't do that to the 39's & when they addressed the issue opted to drill a hole in the gun. I dont know why but thats what ...

Leverdude

They might, I havent really looked at a new one hard. My 39M has a hole in the left side up by the breech to vent gas, but its a 70's or 80's gun. Not new by any means. The new ones have rebounding hammers too. Yuk!! Now I need the barfing smiley.

Leverdude

OI,
does it have the rocker or the new fangled button?
if its got the rocker you just drive out the pin & the rocker comes out freeing up the spring. I havent come actross a button one yet to tinker with but I'd think they came apart.

Leverdude

I doubt it. Its kinda like their flagship, that & the 336.

Blaine. I dont like the safteies either, but wheres these holes your talking about?

Leverdude

Only thing wrong with this forum is the members are people.

Leverdude

But that doesn't fix the problem of the carrier/lifter steel being too soft and beating the timing out of it. that's why I went ahead and tried the "fix" rather than just ordering a new one like I originally planned. Nope, sure dont. But it would let me see how much I could remove if it n...

Griff put a few links in here Joe. One of them gives all the briefs for both sides.

Leverdude

Bruce,
The only issue with ladder sights, carbine sights really, is theres no elevation adjustment for it when folded down.
I think if I were looking to do what you suggest I'd get the tallest one I could & be prepared to file it down to zero. but then your stuck with a one load gun.

Leverdude

I didn't see the game, but it sounds like one posted recently, if not here then on another forum alot of us visit. Didn't cause much ruckus then. While it depicts the shootings of cartoon charecters, aparently Mexican. What I think it really illustrates is the general frustration over the border iss...

Leverdude

What's a "snail"? :shock: :shock: :lol: He's talking about the little cam thing on the lever that lifts the carrier to block the mag tube. I'v seen it called a "snail cam" in literature somewheres. OI, If the guns already haveing trouble rounding that cam will always make it wor...

Leverdude

Does to me. I sure started a ruckus holding the man in high regards in another place online. Then the report came out he shot them in the back but I never saw anything in the media about the cop on the scene saying it looked like a good shooting. Sure would be nice if they presented everything. I fi...

Leverdude

Good to see you. I was a little worried.

Leverdude

Marlin & Rossi Make them. Winchester used to so theyre out there. Uberti & others I think put it in a toggle link action.

Thanks Fwied.

Leverdude

I'm real glad all those guys signed the Senate brief.
But it makes me wonder why they arent observant enough on their own to notice unconstitutional laws in the City they work in. I guess its just more convenient now.

Leverdude

Thanks Charles.
Is there a link or something I can follow this with?

Leverdude

Dont make sense for the country of origin to matter. IMO anyway.
Why should it?

Leverdude

I don't have an answer to the problem. I don't like people breaking our laws, but I also ain't going to turn in the Mexicans that I know who are here and working hard to make a living. I believe that most of those whom we see waving the Mexican flag on TV and protesting are second-generation, born ...

Leverdude

I'm not sure of his point either. He says he's proud to be an American & thats nice but I dont see much difference between a guy rowing a boat in from Cuba & a guy running thru the desert from Mexico. It too strikes me as odd that they would be proud of a heritage they arent even willing to ...

Leverdude

All I can say is I been hanging round here since 03 or 04 & some names have changed but not much else. This forum, like most, has alot of off topic conversations, mostly driven by the events of the times. We are involved in several conflicts across the globe, the economy is faltering & there...

Leverdude

Anybody got any current info on him?
He's the guy in Texas that shot two burglars that robbed his neighbors house. I found one story where another thief in another robbery named one of the dead guys as an acomplice but nothing relateing to his trial, or if there will be one.

Leverdude

Lever dude.. This baby thing isn't quite nit picking. The baby when it comes of age, has every right as a citizen to live in this country. Then the "Family Reunification" provision of the Immigration Code comes into play. That now grown baby can bring members of his/family in and they can...

Leverdude

Honestly I dont think the founders were as caught up in citizenship as we are. I'm not even sure its mentioned. I think they were of the opinion that if you were here you were here & the constitution covered you. Juristiction is a whole different thing. If citizenship was required for someone to...

Leverdude

If I can I take the ramp off & clamp it in a vice, then drive the sight out.
If I cant I support it best I can & tap it out.

When I butcher a deer I do it on the kitchen table. All the steaks & roasts get wrapped & frozen. The front shoulders, neck & other trim I freeze in @ one pound packages. I try & grind them half frozen but regularly leave them freeze solid & let them partially defrost before grin...

Sorta convoluted, but the law tends to be convoluted.

Truer words have never been spoken.

Perhaps a jobs issue? Many latinos and blacks are competing for the same jobs when at the lower-skill levels. Sure to create a lot of animosity, just like whenever any other groups have clashed in American given the same circumstances... :lol: :lol: Not here. If the black folks would work the Latin...

Leverdude

I think your right. I dont live anywhere near Mexico but I do spend alot of time with folks from Latin America. I tend to refer to them all as Mexicans when I talk about them as a group but theyre really a cross section of South American people. Mostly from El salvador, Honduras & Guatemala but ...

What hapenned to Old Ironsights?

Leverdude

Thanks H-Talon. I knew it was in there. Citizenship isn't a requirement for rights either. We all know the constitution only recognizes rights endowed by the Creator. Those rights were enjoyed by everyone before citizenship was even defined. The 14Th amendment is only there because folks had a hard ...

Leverdude

If your born here your a citizen. Thats the only reason most of us are citizens. My grandparents were naturalized or whatever but I was just born here. I doubt you'll see that changed, it would hurt too many good people. Charles does make alot of good points. Its mostly an enforcement issue I think....

Nah, its there. Election time dontcha know, campaign's & all that.

Still I think its an impressive list. How many guys in congress all told?

Leverdude

Not a bad price but the regular 336 is a 336C or 336CS. They dropped the "S" this year judgeing from the catalog. They change model designations for the hardwood stocked guns alot. I cant keep up with them. Was it a walnut stock? I'm thinking it probably wasn't. At one time a 336A was a ri...

I'm touched, May your Dad rest in peace.
You have my sincerest condolences.

Charles, None, or most of us arent legal scholars, but we know right from wrong. I'm sorry if we bore you with our ignorance but personally I'm frustrated by the way the Gov't acts just like you are.

You dont have to shoot them arbitrarily, just as we dont shoot fugitives arbitrarily.(They are fugitives ) Your being silly Charles, I think your wiser than that. We can use our armed men to round them up & push them back across. If they resist we use force as deemed necessary by men in the fiel...

I think the path is easy. Just stop letting it happen like we do now. We dont like it, or at least most here dont seem to, but the country as a whole is just letting it happen. I guess as long as serious deterrants are fantasy it will continue. Countries have gone to war over less. Cant see why we s...
