I would hold out for a pre safety marlin 336.

The new ones looks like plastic stocks even when they use a cheap walnut(marshield). The new remington marlins are far from the quality of the marlins of the 1980's and before. If you hold out till you find a good old one you will be very happy.

G-broker and g uns america always have shooter 30-30 or sometimes 35 rems on dollar auctions from pawn shops around the USA. Watch here and have them shipped to your local FFL and pay the shipping and FFL fee.

I have bought some at 200 and some at 400. The 400 was a 336 SC with waffle top in 35 rem and lyman 66 peep. It looked like someone had put it up for me for 60 years not a single scratch. Lots of people in a bad way on money right now and grandpa 30-30 often gets the sell over the AR rifle.
