![]() This version had I believe a straight stock with checkering on both the wrist and forend and a half round/half octagonal barrel. The 1897 was a limited run rifle, made for a year or two where the Model 39 was renamed after its predecessor, the 1897 Marlin. The other 3 versions that I'm familiar with are the 39D, the 39TDS and the 1897. The 39M or "Mountie" version is similar, but has a 20" barrel and straight stock and lever. The 39A is the Rifle with a curved lever and semi-pistol grip wrist on the stock and a rifle length 24" barrel. ![]() I'm cetainly NOT a big Marlin 39 authority, but we have a couple of them around the house, one old model and one new model, so maybe I can comment on what I know.įor the past 40 or so years, the two main versions of the 39 that have been generally offered to the public have been the 39A and the 39M.
