Model 30 and 30A

Originally part of a line called "Glenfield", Marlin offered a separate series of models with a less expensive cosmetic appearance but the same quality material and workmanship. Marlin has since dropped the use of the Glenfield name.

Marlin marketed the following lever action center-fire rifles under the Glenfield name:

  • Model 36G, from 1964-65
  • Model 30, from 1966-1972
  • Model 30A, from 1973-1983
  • Model 30GT, from 1979-1980
  • Model 30AS, in 1983

PGW Inletting Black

Used for the perfect wood-to-metal fit.

That messy black stuff used by professional gunsmiths for precisely fitting wood to metal. This 1/2 ounce container will fit dozens of stocks and last for years when used sparingly, in accordance with PGW's Fit and Finishing Instructions. Supplied with a small brush and swab for application. 

PGW Classic Oil Finish

An authentic early original type oil finish, will darken (but not redden) the walnut.

Formulated to closely match the appearance of early original Winchester oil finishes. Very easy to apply and maintain for a traditional, warm look. This two-ounce bottle will finish 6-8 sets of stocks. When applied properly, wood should be ready to wax in 1-2 days following application of oil finish.
