3D Animation: How a Marlin 336 Lever-Action Rifle works 

I own a Rossi R95 and it works the exact same way as the marlin. I always wondered what that spring held catch was on the back of the carrier, I knew that it had something to do with the carrier lifting up when closing the lever. Now I know how the whole thing works and now I know what my lubrication points should be, thank you for demonstrating this!❤

coolest videos of all time please make more

336 the most elegant rifle ever made.

Thank you. These videos make the operation of the systems seem so easy to understand.

I have my grandpas 336, serial number says it was made in 86.. by far my favorite gun. Just love the way they look and shoot.. also have my other grandpas Remington Sportsman 58 20 gauge shotgun and its also my favorite. Not sure when it was made, I looked up the serial number and couldn't find it but they quit making them in 65 so its old lmao

Marlin 30/30 is my deer rifle . Open sights .had never let me down 1 shot 1 kill over the years with it Great video

Exactly what I was hoping to find, thanks for making!

I have a 2016 Remington made Marlin 1895 CB 45-70. 6+1 rounds, 18.5” barrel, American Black Walnut stocks, semi buckhorn, rear and gold bead front sights. This is a fantastic Marlin lever gun made by Remington. Bullseye accurate, tough as nails, lever action is perfect!!

By far the best video.

Hey...this is awesome! Really nice work. Thanks for putting in the time to do this.

Nice job, thanks!

Thank you. Excellent! Great video showing the internals and especially the lever arm and carrier operation. It's difficult to show how the raised area of lever arm interacts as it slides past the spring on the carrier. On the lever's return stroke (begin closing the action) the raised area of the lever "guides" the carrier spring upward, lifting the carrier enough (before it disengages with the lever) so that the bolt breech face contacts the base of the cartridge and begins to push the round off the carrier and into the barrels chamber (completely closing the lever and bolt/breech face). Additionally, the front edge of the carrier is also preventing the next round from exiting the magazine tube until the lever/bolt is completely closed and in the proper position to allow this (next) round to enter onto the carrier. Very much appreciated👏👍.

Elegant, simple, made to work, bravo my friend, you did that piece of classic Americana justice

Thanks for doing this, its pretty cool!

That type of bolt lockup just does seem very strong. If the protrusion that extends into the bolt shears off it wouldn’t lock up anymore.

I took mine all apart to clean it a few months ago, I found the bolt lock up rather interesting compare to newer rifles.

what a cool video! thanks for posting this

Спасибо ;) thank you

Awesome!

Mantap👍👍👍

excellent work, great animation and has a lot of detail, wait is the caliber 35. remington? can't reconize it.

My father left me one of these when he passed away. I am very familiar with modern platforms but this is new to me. The gun has been well cared for and is currently empty in the safe. I cannot get the lever to operate. From watching this, I assume it will not operate unless the gun is loaded?

This is an awesome animation of a lever action rifle. Can you reverse engineer a 3D animated version with a left-hand ejection port?

Is the locking block just free floating?

Thanks for the interesting video! In what program can this be drawn? What is the name of the program?

Hm the shell lifter functions kinda confuses me can somebody explains what parts that made the lifter operates?I be really appreciate if u did

👌

i dont understand how the lever when moving back does not contact the round feed arm but then when it moves forward it moves it upward

👍

Great work can u please make a video on how rotating bolt works

can you change a lever action that ejects from the top to make it eject from the side?

Can you do the henry long rage ?

how do you empty the carrier without fireing ? is it just repeated levering till empty ?

!

When a watched the Marlin 336 and I remembered Ronald DeFeo killing his family

I love the 3D animation. But you have missed a safety feature that is most important in describing this gun and many others that use the same aspects. There is a functional lever safety that is not depicted in your video . There is a very important part behind the trigger (#74 Trigger Safety Block) group that is intended not to allow the gun to fire unless the lever is fully held closed by the shooter. If the shooter has the gun cocked and loaded and removes his grip from the gun, the lever should drop away from the safety block and not allow the hammer to fall to full firing engagement. If the trigger is pulled (for whatever reason) when the grip is not compressed the trigger should not be able to fully release the hammer to fire even if the lever is re-engaged. The cross-bolt safety in this case is a redundant but safe protection. While you should be commended for your skills in this video, I hope you remove and update it so armature gunsmiths don't miss interpret the functionality and incorrectly fit the lever retention to remain engaged when not in grip by the operator.
