Manufactured in the United States in 1967, this receiver carries the AC serial prefix associated with that production year. It is a machined-steel component from the classic Marlin 39A line, known for its lever-action operation and .22 LR chambering.
The receiver uses the 39A two-piece takedown architecture and retains the right-side knurled takedown screw. The large oval lever loop is present, offering the familiar handling profile associated with this configuration.
This is a pre-cross-bolt-safety configuration; no cross-bolt safety hole is observed. The action employs an exposed hammer with a half-cock notch as the safety feature.
