I know, I know, ford Chevy, blah blah but hear me out as I give the specifics.
I'm looking for a gun for younger shooters/small adults for deer. Since I hand load I can make reduced loads and that, to me, says 30-30. The guns in question are both used. Both look about the same as far as condition. The Winchester is from 1908 according to running the serial number through old guns.net and the marlin is JM stamped.
The Winchester is priced at 398 and the marlin is 419. This is a no-haggle pawn shop because, obviously, staying in business doesn't matter to them. I do like the two guns though so I'm sort of married to the seller in this case.
Because of the shape the Winchester is in I'm worried the serial number has been altered. Doesn't look 106 years old to me. What do y'all think?
