Been hankering for a Marlin 39A.

Pricey now, are they worth the collector cost? Any leads on excellent one for sale? Of course I'm watching for them online. Thanks in advance.

I like the Marlin 39A but I prefer the lighter, more compact Winchester 9422. If I was starting over in my search for a Marlin, I think I would get a Mountie.

I went with the newer Browning bl 22. Seems okay, just no stories to tell from scratches and nicks, yet.

Can’t go wrong with a 39a. I prefer 22mag though! Marlin 25MN is a sweet package!

The two greatest squirrel 22s ever made were the 39a and a the cz trainer models.

The browning bl-22 is lighter and handier with better iron sights than the 39a in my opinion even lighter than the Mountie version. Even the grade 1’s are almost too pretty to hunt with.

I like the Browning levers too. But I really would like a 52B or 541T.

Elk, I've been getting rid of guns and I have one. Just not sure I'm ready to part with it. Christmas present from almost 60 years ago. I'll keep you in mind for when the time comes.

Love mine! Fun to shoot. Well-built.

Thanks for your thoughts. I have a Marlin 57M levermatic in 22 wmr. Thinking about selling that here, but have no experience with online gun sales originating in Colorado. I'd rather shoot targets, hence the switch from mag to vanilla .22.

Keep me 2nd on the list. I will give you a fair price.

The Mounties are awesome little rifles.

I’ve had a mountie and a full size 39a since I could walk. Both are accurate, fun guns. The rifle length one shoots bugholes with CCI subsonics. Kicks less than a pellet gun.
