How common are marliin 336"s in .35 rem with the straight grip butt stock?

T = Texan = straight stock. Much more rare. 35Rem are a 30 to 1 more rare than 30-30s in any year or configuration - just my rough guess which is no doubt wrong. However making such a sweeping generalisation I doubt anyone could say with precision.
I forget the numbers exactly, but around 5000 Marauders were made in 30-30 and 35Rem for only two years - of those 5000 only around 1200 were 35Rem. Can't find my Brophy reference to check my numbers right now. I'll edit them if/when I do.

You're right to be wary, but this rifle has been in a good (old ) friends possesion for many years.He still has the original box, paperwork and reciept.He aquired it off a member of our gun club (CHAS) who bought it new. It will undoubtably turn into a complicated trade of some sort lol

Think it's 16" or 16.5".
Yeah, just read the fine print in the old Marlin ad. It was 16 1/4 inches for the barrel, only 34 1/2 inches overall length.
That's a pretty short package but probably has a sharp report.
Yep 16 1/4". Report is not too loud - no ear ringing or the like at all - using a 200gr out at 2000MV with H4895 - http://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum/showthread.php?639064-35-Rem-Marlin-Marauder-proves-it-s-a-capable-hunting-arm
anglia2 - look for W, Y or Z serial number prefix. Most Marauders are Z prefix which can look like a 2 unless you look carefully.
