The 336C configuration pairs a 20 in blued steel barrel with Marlin’s Micro-Groove rifling for this model, matched to a blued steel receiver. It retains the traditional side-ejecting design and a full-length tubular magazine with an approximate 6+1 capacity. A gold-tone trigger, two barrel bands, and the front band-mounted swivel stud round out the classic profile.
The walnut stock set includes a pistol-grip buttstock and matching fore-end with cut checkering for secure handling. Sling swivel studs are installed, supporting field carry. Length of pull measures 13.25 in.
Sighting equipment includes a hooded ramp front sight and an adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight. The receiver is drilled and tapped and currently fitted with a one-piece scope base and Warne vertically split rings (with “W” medallion), simplifying optic installation if desired.
Production and marking details point to Remington-era manufacture: the Ilion, New York barrel rollmark and Remington barrel date code "WH" indicate August 2013 production. The receiver itself carries only the serial number (MR38193D). An MR-prefix serial number range is observed, consistent with this timeframe. Made in the United States.
Controls and safety features include the lever-action mechanism and a cross-bolt safety. The rifle’s side-ejecting design provides clear ejection and easy access to the top of the receiver.
