30-30??????

[Outlaw]

Hey guys n gals,
  I've got all types of firearms but never owned a 30-30. I always wanted one, just never bought one. I have a chance to get an almost never fired Marlin 336CS in excellent condition for a decent price ($300). Anybody had any experience with this weapon? I've only seen one report on the blogs about them jamming. All other reports are excellent.

Marlin makes some great lever guns

Get it! 

Check out Horandy's LEVERevolution ammo and then www.brockmansrifles.com for the custom work he can do on Marlins.

Get It!!!
Almost everyone in my family owns one.  We hunt white tail and mule deer with them,  sometimes antelope.  When ever we saddle up the horses the 30-30 is a must have.  We all will stand by them swear by them and shoot the sh*t out of them!

The 30-30 much like the .30 cal has  been much maligned but  both have some serious close power. Very managible and easy to use. some good aftermarket loadings for both. Kinda been poo-pooed for combat rounds but some say not so fast. Good for hunting and I would grab one in a pinch . I think mikey would have somethin to say about this.

What he said.

I had a Marlin 336RC, made ca. 1952, same deal, looked almost NIB, sold it a few years later for just under $500 and thought I was being robbed. Had a scope put on it, sweet rifle. They do heat up in semi-rapid fire, though, be forewarned, that barrel gets toasty.

But a very nice rifle.

I wish i could have found a deal like that. I wouldn't have had put that thread up about AR or Lever Gun. LOL
