I've owned 6 marlins and all but one were Model 336 30-30's. Now I own 2 Model 336 30-30's and 1 Model 60SS but that is always subject to change.

All I have is a model 99M1 that I bought back in 1960s.  With a 3X8 scope on it, it is a very deadly squirrel rifle and I've always loved the way it handles.  Only problem is it now jams about every three shots.  Tried a really through cleaning, but spent cartridges still will not eject properly.  Have to manually remove case stove piped in action  or jammed between fresh cartridge being loaded and receiver.  Metal that rim of case hits to be ejected seems to be worn and tried filing lightly on it to square it off more, but did not help.  Ejection system different than ones on Model 60s built later so can't buy kit to solve problem.  Any ideas out there for fixing my problem.

I bought my wife a 39-A before we were married, in 1979. The only work done on it was the cartridge cutoff got worn and the rifle tried to load two rounds at one time. That was a quick fix, though, and I also had a trigger job done on it at the same time.

It is absolutely one of the best shooters I have ever seen, and with a Williams receiver sight it really lays 'em in there. I wouldn't part with this one. The barrels seem to be really well made.
