levers Report post Posted November 15, 2022 A few guys have asked me about Marlin 39a's and I saw that Arizona Firearms in Gilbert has this one for sale. I haven't seen it in person. I think they'll pull it off Gunbroker if it doesn't have bids. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/957128687 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was my first gun. Still have it today and shoot it fairly regularly. Just a fantastically well made firearm and it has held up well with 50+ years of life factored in the mix. IIRC, it holds ~25 LR's, a bunch more longs and maybe a thousand shorts so you can shoot it for what seems like forever. 😁 Nice examples of these are pricey (my work laptop blocks many sites so can't access the link now) and I wish I knew what Dad paid for mine. I suspect no more than ~$100. Eddie 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azsugarbear Report post Posted November 16, 2022 These rifles have become collectors items as their production run was limited. I sold my Deluxe 39A with original box, manual and carry bag for just over $1,000 about ten years ago. It was in excellent condition. This one is pretty rough, but still worth $500+ to somebody - just not me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L Cazador Report post Posted November 16, 2022 Rifles in excellent condition always gain value. Junk only goes down, no matter how rare it is. Junk is junk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
