View attachment 202682 View attachment 202684 View attachment 202686 I love the fit & finish on old firearms. Getting ready to check the zero on these two before a cool spell hits & I get the urge for squirrel & gravy on a biscuit.

1952 Marlin 39A & 1958 Winchester 63

Anyone else share a pic of old .22s???

I don’t have any pics, but pretty guns [emoji1360]

 

39A from 1968 I picked up last season.

39A from 1968 I picked up last season.

I wonder what year Marlin switched to the smaller stock & forearm? I have to admit that’s a trim, pretty piece.

 

Got a 39 A . Don't remember the year . Love it !

 

I need to get the ejection issues with my 39A worked out.
I wouldn’t mind chasing a few squirrels with it.

Mine did that. Replaced the magazine tube spring & it stopped.

 

A 39A is on my wish list. Some really nice ones in this thread. The older I get, the more I lean toward walnut and blued steel.

 

I have an old Winchester model 77 (tube fed) and an old Savage 340 in 22Hornet. Both are Walnut and steel. IIRC that Winchester is over 70 years old. It was grandpas rifle, so it sits in the cabinet most of the time. Mrs Weld likes to shoot it when we are plinking. It has ironsights and is accurate. The charging handle is on the left side and will thump your thumb good if you get it in the way. You will only do it once! One day I will sell the thing to someone who loves Winchester rifles. I have to wait till my MIL goes on to be with the Lord...

 

You checked the chamber? Sometimes they will get fouled just enough to drag the case free.

 

I cleaned it some. The gun was actually cleaner than I expected it to be.
I did have some issues and had to get a few spent casings from the chamber with a knife, but when I put the Winchester’s up and switched to CCI that issue went away.

 

1975 Marlin Mod 1964 .44Mag

Came into my life a year a couple years ago and finally obtained full ownership. She needs some TLC, and I intend to try and take a deer with it this year.

Still has a couple stickers on it too.
