Marlin 336 the Other Classic Backwoods Home Deer Rifle
Marlin 336 The other classic backwoods home deer rifle By Massad Ayoob In the March/April 2005 issue of Backwoods Home Magazine, this space was devoted to the “Winchester ‘94: the Classic Backwoods Home Deer Rifle.” And you know, even when I was writing that paean to the lever-action .30-30 that sold over five million units since the year 1894, I knew that I’d have to follow up with an article on the other such deer rifle, Marlin’s Model 336. Marlin introduced their Model 1893 rifle in the eponymous year, initially in old black powder calibers like the .32-40 and .38-55, but soon chambered for the .30-30 Winchester round. Some 900,000 of these guns were made between then and 1935, when the company replaced it with their sleeker Model 36. Where Winchester emphasized a lean, mean straight- stock design with a slim, spare fore-end, the Marlin had a pistol grip style stock with its lever loop bent accordingly, and a fuller fore-end. These attributes were carried into the newer gun, destined to be their longest-lived deer rifle: the Model 336, introduced in 1948 and still Marlin’s most popular hunting rifle. The rest, as the saying goes, is history. At the SHOT Show—it stands for Shooting, Hunting, and Outdoor Trade, the largest trade show in the firearms industry—in Las Vegas in January, 2005, I had the privilege of looking over a handsomely engraved rifle that was Marlin’s four millionth Model 336. From the early days, the Marlin’s solid frame with ejection to the right side (instead of out the top of the mechanism, as with the Winchester) was one of its distinguishing features. -

Pascagoula Decoy Company Employees Operating the Duplicating Lathe Machines
Pascagoula Decoy Company employees operating the duplicating lathe machines. A guiding arm traced the master mold, which controlled the shape of the decoy. Note the piles of sawdust. CHAPTER 1 COLLECTING DECOYS The evolution of duck decoys can be traced back to primitive days when American Indians used their resourceful talents to construct wild-duck decoys from a combination of mud, grass or reeds, and feathers. Hoping to get a shot with his wooden bow and arrow, the hunter arranged the fake ducks in different patterns to lure the birds within comfortable shooting range—preferably on the water. Using decoys during a hunt remains popular today. In the late 1890s, the popularity of duck hunting increased dramati- cally with the advent of market hunters, or commercial hunters. Because the duck and goose populations were very strong, the commercial market was profitable, and there was a greater need for decoys. The individual hand-carvers could not keep up with demand, so this need was met by factories using duplicating lathe machines. These machines made it possible to manufacture thousands of wooden duck decoys commercially. Up to twelve birds could be produced at the same time. The heads were drilled and fitted for glass eyes and glued for added strength. The head and body were made separate from one another and attached by a wooden dowel. Some of the heads were mounted in a fixed position while others were adjustable, allowing for different poses such as preening or sleeping. The large numbers of birds produced by the lathe machines far sur- passed the number of hand-carved decoys that were previously being pro- duced. -
