I can never see the rifles we have being made today having the class of that vintage rifle. Very nice!

Thanks all...
Those old ones were indeed built like classy bank vaults.

Nice old gun! I've got one also, and for whatever reason it seems that the 93's are not as high priced as some other models.......except mine, paid too much for it. I have no idea why, (on both counts), but it's good for us. I also had a chance to buy a nice case colored Marlin 1936 for a very reasonable price, and let it go because I thought there must be something wrong with it. I think they are a very nice gun.

Hey, I got one of those...38-55
It was a 30-30 with a sewer pipe bore. Sent the barrel out to Jes at WWW.35Caliber.com and had him rebore, rifle and chamber in 38-55. Amazingly accurate rifle! Love it!
