This rifle is a Marlin Model 336 lever action carbine, which I picked up used from a guy I used to work with.  The barrel was pretty dirty when I got it, but after a little bit of scrubbing, it was bright and shiny.  I would guess that this rifle probably never had more than 50 rounds through it before I bought it.  I have always thought lever action rifles were pretty neat, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to purchase this rifle.  The rifle shoots quite well at the range.  The recoil on the rifle is barely noticeable.
