Based on the older design of the Marlin 36 rifle, which was based upon the even earlier Marlin 1895, the Marlin 336 was created in 1948 with some improvements that continued to improve the innovations of earlier models while maintaining a traditional look. These changes occurred primarily with the design of the bolt and ejection port, allowing for easier operation of the gun and greater durability.
