Marlin model 90 over under

Post by E dixon »

can anyone tell me what a good ballpark price would be for a marlin model 90 over and under 16 gauge ? i am looking for one as my great grandpa had one and i love old double barrels i own several side by sides but only one over and under there is one on gunbroker but it seems to be fairly high priced for what i can find doing my own research i attached the link. i would also be happy with a Sears ranger/Jc Higgens but other than gun broker can anyone recommend any good websites/places to get one ? i understand they are more of a utility gun than what is normally talked about here. from what i can tell they seem to be good guns. thanks for the help.

The gun referenced, 7710, is a pre-WW-II 16-gauge with an after-market solid rib added. Don't know what that does to value, but it sold cheaper than the asking price for three of the four 12-gauges on Guns International.

What I have found on my internet searches.
With no prefix to the serial number they are 1936 to 40.
B = 1941
C = 1945
"c" = 1946
D = 1947
E = 1948
F = 1949
G = 1950
H = 1951
J = 1952
K = 1953
L = 1954
M = 1955
N = 1956
P = 1957
R = 1957-58

Also, circa 1950 Marlin eliminated the side ribs on the barrels.
