mine is too far back in the cave to get to right now. it is a 1963 336SC with a weaver 1.5X scope on a tip off mount. just enough power to see better in the woods. Lee

I can wait a day or two for pics Lee. Just don't dawdle too long. 
In honor of the relatively common Marlin 336 that just sold for $10,000+ on GB, let's show off our JM Marlin rifles that just have to be worth more.
Here's a favorite:
336SD made in 1958 for a Marlin employee in .35 Remington, non standard stock style for an SD but it numbers to the gun. Complete with hammer spur, sling swivels and original front sight hood.
Nice rifle. That's at least a $9,500 rifle in today's market, give or take a few thousand
At those rates, my old 1971 vintage saddle ring carbine 1894 ought to be worth a few thousand. It is a nice one, totally unmolested. I added the Williams peep.

336 SC in .30-30 that wears a 3x Leupold.

336 RC that was completely rebuilt in the old North Haven factory with a 2.5 Weaver on top.

Here is a standard 336Y in .30-30 that I sent off to Lee Hadaway at The Arms Room for a custom takedown conversion, action job, and custom refinish. I also added a Marlin factory large loop. The "Y" model has a short 16 inch barrel and the stock is 3/4 inch shorter than a standard 336, making this a very handy rifle to wield.
Even with the conversion and the custom carrying case made by a saddle maker, it still didn't cost me $10,000, but it's a fine shooting rifle.

Sjbrdn, those are some very unique Marlins, for sure. I was unaware of the 444 Magnum. I have a first variation of the Marlin .444 and it looks just like yours. Thanks for sharing.
OP
Very nice! The 336 rifles with the straight levers are typically called "Texan". Does yours have a saddle ring?

The one on the left is a .35 Remington from 1950. The one on the right is my bumming around .35. One afternoon I had just sold a handgun and made a little profit. I stopped by a pawn shop on the way home and haggled on this .35 until I got it for the exact amount of profit I made off the pistol.
The .35 on the left has an unmolested waffle top and wears on old side-mount Williams peep.
I found this .35 a few years ago on the used rack at a local police supply store. They had just purchased all the confiscated guns from the Cobb County Sheriff's Department (Georgia), and part of the deal required them to take all the department's old patrol rifles. The store didn't want them, but they had they had no choice if they wanted the rest of the guns.

Very cooll! That is the first LE marked Marlin I have seen.
It's the only one I've ever seen, and I've had a number of people try to buy it. When I saw it, I knew it was coming home with me. I paid less than $400 for it.
The rifle is only thirty-nine years old. Times have certainly changed in law enforcement when you think about metro Atlanta deputies carrying a Marlin 336 about the time Miami Vice hit television.

If that 336 was worth $10 large, what is my Winchester 71 Deluxe worth? A couple of hundred?
I never could get use to lever actions with pistol grip stocks. I had a Marlin 336 in 375Win couple years ago. Traded it of, just didn't feel right. Recently sold a 99 Savage 250/3000 that I hadn't owned very long. In high school I had a 99 carbine with saddle stock. I was trying to replace it but it had pistol grip stock. Come to think of it, never seen a Cowboy with a pistol grip on his Winchester.
