I have a Marlin 39a with this stamped on the barrel: The Marlin Firearms Co.-Model 39-A <New Haven CONN. U.S.A - 22S.L. & L.R.> The serial number is either E L 8803 (May 1968)-or-E 18803 (1982) Do the number codes begin with a letter? The barrel is round. It does NOT have a golden trigger. The “L” or “1” in the serial number is hard to ...
In 1973, Marlin changed the system because dealers complained that Marlin was "dating" the inventory with that old system. So, in 1973, Marlin's new system subtracted the first two digits from 100 to determine the year of manufacture (i.e. 100 - 27 = 73 or 1973) Since your gun starts with 73, it may be that the first guns off the line in 1973 ...
1970-70. 1971-71. 1972-72. Starting in 1973, the year of manufacture maybe determined by subtracting the first two digits of the serial number from 100: Example: SN 2512345 would have been made in 1975 [100 - 25 = 75] and SN 94365295 would have been made in 2006 [ 100 - 94 = 06 (2006) ]. For Marlin Rimfire Rifles [non-serialized]:
These numbers are Marlin factory production numbers given to us by Bob Behn, President of Marlin. The numbers he suppied us with were from 1952 through 1975, and it is broken down by years, A's or M's and carbines, ballard and micro-groove barrels, blued or gold triggers, ADL's and ADL's with scopes, presentations (Brace of a 1,000 39A ...
One 39M. One 1897 Cowboy. One 1897T. One 39 TDS. On this recent 39A I plan on installing a vintage all steel receiver sight, probably a Redfield #75 and base, or a Lyman. I will also install a globe front sight with interchangable posts. In addition I own several Marlin 1894's, 1895's and 336's and they are. Three 1894 .357 pre-safety models.
Re: Older 39a jamming. by Regnier (gunrunner) » Sun Jul 23, 2017 1:24 pm. Gunny; The carrier consists of three parts. The carrier, the rocker and spring. If the rocker is worn, or the spring is weak, then the carrier will not work. I would think that the carrier itself is okay, which means you should start by replacing the rocker and spring.
4) The extractor in the custom is 2-piece design with a flat spring. The extractor in the Golden 39A is longer and is a single-piece design. See photo below. 6) Finally, the biggest difference is the custom receiver has a long spring-loaded lever pinned into a slot milled into the right side of the receiver.
Prairie Buck; The grip cap you describe was something Marlin made available from 1951 to 1952. The idea was for the original owner to engrave his initials in the brass insert that fits in the "peanut" shaped hole. Marlin included an envelope with the new gun so the new owner could remove the brass insert and send it back to Marlin to engrave ...
Boot1978; The Micro-Groove barrels did not show up until 1954 in the Model 39-A's. The white line spacer started in 1951. Your gun certainly must have a Ballard style rifled barrel if it does not have 16 lands and grooves that is found in the Micro-Groove barrel. The Ballard barrels have 6 lands and grooves.
by Regnier (gunrunner) » Thu Jul 02, 2009 10:48 pm. To our Guest; The gold plated trigger was added to the Model 39-A line in 1957. Marlin discontinued gold plating the triggers in 1982, but then reinstated the gold plated trigger in 1985. I hope this helps.
