Just in case, any ideas on where to get said gun restored?

Thats pretty much the word i got off the marlin bulletin board you posted earlier. They also said it didn't come with holes for a scope so it was drilled and tapped. I will probably keep it as is cuz my wife would go ape scat if i throw money at another gun.

TReX400, I forwarded the pics to Randy and here's his response.
"Fred since it has been blued I believe it would be treated as a 39a for value. It looks in good condition so $300-500 depending on the buyer. Be advised if he were to have it professionally restored, re-case colored $$$ an original 39 goes from $1300 for 60% and $3000 at 95%. Not many in great shape due to the fact these rifles were shooters. (My prices come from 27th Edition of Blue Book of Gun Values)hope this of some help.

Not a 39A, it's a 39 made between 1922 and 1938. Posted a couple of pics on my page.

I would have to run down my gun show partner and see what the book says. Marlin is still producing the39A and they aren't drawing any special pricing, but a 4 digit serial number??????? I e-mailed the flake cop and will see what the book says. I also contacted a Marlin collector I know and will see what he says.

Hey Bear/Tencubed, i got a Marlin model 39 I'm trying to determine the value of, any ideas? I've seen them go for 1500 for a basket case and i've seen pristine ones go for 7500. the one i have is pretty much mint, the only thing is, i was told the receiver was originally case hardened and mine appears to have been blued. Its a very nice job but from what i've been told it's not the orginal finish. Any thoughts? Oh yeah it has a 4 digit serial # which leads me to believe its a first year, and has a weaver scope.

I think i must have worded my survey wrong though or sompthing.. I wasn't tryin to get just incapacitated vehicles.. I was just talkin about damage that would make your car not worth as much. i mean hell. i had my ranger not even 2 weeks and i hit a tree with it backin thru the woods. thats considers crashin your rig to me. I had to get it fixed.. Well i didnt till i got hit n run on that side and they replaced the qtr panel.

First car, 1964 1/2 Mustang (not the one on in NY)
Dented hood, dented rear qtr panel. Still worth more when I sold it than when I bought it. Oh yeah, I also blew the 289 that was in it and put a 302 in it.
