Aggie Bill Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I bought a new Marlin 30-30 model 336 / 1895 lever rifle around last Christmas. I have not shot it, I did added a new scope. Today I was cycling the rifle and I noticed that if the safety was ON or OFF, it would still FIRE. I know you can look at the hammer and see if it's cocked or not, since it's new I would like for the safety to work. I believe I read that Remington was not honoring Marlins repairs? What would you do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex M Rugers #6621 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 The hammer will fall when trigger is pulled , whether the safety is on or off. The crossbolt is supposed to keep the hammer from hitting the firing pin when safety is on. If it doesn't , you do have a problem. Rex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michigan Slim Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I'm pretty sure it's in the manual that should have been in the rifle box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
