How a Marlin Model 336 Lever Action Rifle Works

The Marlin Model 336 is a lever-action rifle and carbine made by Marlin Firearms. Since its introduction in 1948, it has been offered in a number of different calibers and barrel lengths, but is commonly chambered in .30-30 Winchester or .35 Remington, using a 20- or 24-inch barrel. Currently, the model with a 24-inch barrel is only available in .30-30 Winchester. The Model 336 is currently not in production.
History: The Model 336 is a direct development of the Marlin Model 1893 rifle which was produced from 1893 to 1936. Based on the patents of L.L. Hepburn, the Model 1893 incorporated a new locking bolt system and a two-piece firing pin. In 1936, with only minor changes to the stock, forearm, and sights, the Model 1893 was re designated the Model 1936 (soon renamed the Model 36). All of these firearms featured a solid-top receiver made of forged steel and incorporated side ejection of fired cartridges. Compared to the Winchester 94, then the predominant lever-action hunting rifle, the Model 36 was somewhat heavier with a simpler internal mechanism and a full pistol grip-type buttstock in contrast to the Winchester 94's straight grip stock.
In 1948, the Model 36 was replaced by the Model 336, which incorporated the patents of Thomas R. Robinson, Jr., a Marlin employee. Sold under both the Marlin and Glenfield brands, the Model 336 has been in continuous production from 1948 to the present day, and is currently produced by Ruger Firearms under the Marlin brand. Ruger is expected to start production of Marlin rifles sometime 2021.
While most current variants of the Model 336 feature a full pistol-grip walnut stock, 20 inch barrel and full length tube magazine, other versions of the 336 have been frequently offered by Marlin over the years, including barrel lengths of 16.25-inch, 18-inch, 22-inch and 24-inch barrels, half-length magazines, and models with straight grips and/or hardwood (birch) stocks.

I'm in awe at you guys that can make this kind of animation. I do so love watching such.
I can read any amount of books on how guns work, but only rarely see in my minds eye what they're trying to describe.

Thanks, but I wasn't involved in making the game. I just played the game, recorded it, and edited the video. Lots of people make that assumption though. The game is called "World of Guns" it's available on Steam and possibly the app store.

Ну что сказать - отличная аннимация разборки и сборки оружия, а так же работа всех частей его механизма, всё ясно и понятно.Плохо вот только что производители не изготавливают Марлин под патроны; 7,62х54R / .366ТКМ/9,3×64 /.410×70 /.444 Марлин /.45-90 .45-120/ .50-120. А ведь этими калибрами (от 9мм. до 12.7мм.) можно стрелять и дробью, что увеличивает возможности эксплуатации оружия, ну и соответственно рынок его сбыта.Не мешало бы задуматься над этим изготовителям оружия со скобой Генри (левер екшен).

Very cool!

[@cozmcwillie7897]

Is this lever action the same kind that was in the rifles of the late 1800's ?

[@americangangster1911]

This particular lever action was released in 1948. It operates very similar to 1800s lever guns though.

​@@americangangster1911The Marlin 336 is just an updated version of the Marlin Model 1893. The biggest difference in the Marlin 1893 is the square bolt, which looks almost like it is part of the receiver when the bolt is closed. The internal parts of the gun are almost identical.
