I have a Marlin 39A with serial number D23XXX, Built in 1946 according to my research, that jams literally every time you try to chamber a round. My gunsmith friend says that the cartridge carrier is worn out. The older ones are slightly different than the newer ones and don't interchange. He can't find one anywhere, so I figure I should try here.
Other than than the fact it's currently a single shot gun, it is in very nice shape.
Who would I contact to have my gun looked at and fixed? There has to be someone who either has a cartridge carrier or can just make a new one. (Yea that will cost money, but these old 39As don't grow on trees.)
Thanks for your help.
