The Model 336CS configuration pairs a 20-inch carbine-length barrel with Marlin's micro-groove rifling, delivering a smooth-shooting .30-30 with excellent bore characteristics. The barrel wears a North Haven, CT rollmark consistent with its 1986 manufacture.
It retains the classic side-eject, solid-top receiver that is drilled and tapped, and it uses a cross-bolt safety with a red fire indicator. A full-length tubular magazine with two barrel bands provides a 6+1 stated capacity in .30-30.
Factory-style iron sights include a hooded ramp front bead and an adjustable semi-buckhorn rear. The installed Simmons 8-Point 4x32 scope with duplex reticle is mounted on a receiver base with rings for a clear, simple sight picture.
The wood stock set features a pistol-grip profile with a fluted comb, smooth uncheckered surfaces, and sling studs. A black Marlin buttplate with a white-line spacer and a 13.0-inch length of pull complete the classic carbine handling. A black nylon sling is installed for carry.
Made in the United States during the 1980s, this 336CS presents a well-kept example of Marlin's side-eject lever-action design with period-correct features and useful inclusions.
