1970-70. 1971-71. 1972-72. Starting in 1973, the year of manufacture maybe determined by subtracting the first two digits of the serial number from 100: Example: SN 2512345 would have been made in 1975 [100 - 25 = 75] and SN 94365295 would have been made in 2006 [ 100 - 94 = 06 (2006) ]. For Marlin Rimfire Rifles [non-serialized]:
I got an email from a guy who said the MR is Marlin Remington/and the 2 most likely signifies the year and the 2nd number most likely signifies the month...or vice versa...of manufacture. I got the rifle in Sept. 2012 so the 2 probably means 2012. The whole sequence may show what number in the lot mine was built. The whole number is MR2xxxxC.
The guns made during the war will have the letter A, B, C or D prefix, and the serial number will be located up by the forearm, such as the Marlin Firearms Company did prior to 1916. These guns are all marked "Model 1893" (except of course the Models 1895, '94, '92 and '97). After WW I ended and the new Marlin Firearms Corporation took over ...
Re: Marlin 39 Mfg Date. by Regnier (gunrunner) » Fri Feb 06, 2009 6:29 pm. This very well could be a Model 39 as Brophy lists the high for the non-prefix guns at nearly 13,000. So, this would probably be about a 1925 gun. Jwmtx: Model 39's made between 1921 and 1925 had no serial number prefix.
One 1897 Cowboy. One 1897T. One 39 TDS. On this recent 39A I plan on installing a vintage all steel receiver sight, probably a Redfield #75 and base, or a Lyman. I will also install a globe front sight with interchangable posts. In addition I own several Marlin 1894's, 1895's and 336's and they are. Three 1894 .357 pre-safety models.
Re: Model 30AW - date information. by Regnier (gunrunner) » Tue Feb 10, 2009 4:46 am. Marlin used a serializing system whereby you subtract the first two digits from 100 to gain the year of manufacture. Marlin has used this system since 1973. Prior to that, Marlin used the first two digits of the year for the serial number, but dealer ...
From scanning some of the other posts it seems that the following info might help to narrow things: (1) the serial number is located on the underside of the receiver toward the forearm/barrel, not under the lever; (2) there is no star or bullseye marking anywhere on the rifle; and (3) and the barrel reads (top line) "Marlin Firearms Co.NEW ...
Thanks ! 1-800-544-8892 The fella that answered was real polite and didn't come off as if he were being pestered. I told him it was a Marlin Camp 9, and he asked for the serial number. I told him what it was and he said: "It is one of the last to have been made before they were discontinued in 2000. Hence, he said mine was made in 2000.
Marlin used the two digits of the year indicating the year (in your case, 71 for 1971) beginning in 1969, and discontinued that method after 1972. Dealers complained that Marlin was "dating" the inventory, so Marlin changed to subtracting the first two digits of the serial number from 100 in 1973.
