Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Originally introduced in 1948 as a direct progression of the Model 1936 and Model 36, the Marlin Model 336 stands alongside the Winchester Model 94 as one of the most iconic lever-action hunting rifles in American history. Designed by Carl Swebilius, the 336 introduced a solid-top flat receiver w/ side ejection, providing a vastly superior platform for mounting optics compared to top-ejecting lever guns of its era. Further improved in 1953 w/ Marlin's proprietary Micro-Groove rifling system, the Model 336 became renowned for its exceptional accuracy, robust mechanical lockup, and smooth lever cycling. The "CS" variant (Carbine w/ Cross-Bolt Safety), produced during the peak North Haven, Connecticut manufacturing era, remains highly sought after by hunters and collectors seeking authentic "JM" proofed craftsmanship.
This specific example is an authentic North Haven-built Marlin Model 336CS manufactured in 1986 (indicated by the "14" serial prefix), bearing serial number 14067692. Chambered in the quintessential .30/30 Winchester cartridge, it features a 20-inch Micro-Groove barrel, full-length tubular magazine, semi-buckhorn rear sight w/ hooded front ramp, factory cross-bolt safety, slip-on hammer extension, leather sling, and an attractive American walnut stock featuring the signature Marlin "Bullseye" inlay in the lower stock line. The barrel proudly displays the desirable "JM" proof stamp alongside "MOD. 336CS MICRO-GROOVE BARREL CAL. 30/30 WIN." Preserved in superior overall condition w/ brilliant original blued finish, rich walnut wood grain, rock-solid lockup, and a mirror-bright Micro-Groove bore, this classic "JM" Marlin 336CS is a prime, turn-key classic for the woods or any lever-action collection.
