Description
Black and white 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad for the Micro-Groove Rifling that is used on their rifle barrels. The ad shows two different barrels, one with ordinary rifling and the other with the Marlin’s Micro-Groove Rifling which uses 16 shallow grooves as opposed to the 4 to 6 deep lands and grooves used in the other. The ad takes the opportunity to mention all of the types of their rifles that use this technique but it talks about, and shows a picture of, the Marlin Golden 39-A .22 Lever-Action Repeater which is mentioned selling for $78.50. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
