MARLIN 338 MARLIN EXPRESS NO BOX BUT UNFIRED WITH SERIAL NUMBER 92050XXX WHICH INDICATES MODEL YEAR 2008. THE 338 MX WAS NOT INTRODUCED TO THE PUBLIC UNTIL 2009 WHICH MAKES THIS NOT JUST FIRST YEAR BUT FIRST PRODUCTION!! WOOD AND BLUEING ARE PERFECT. I CANT FIND A MARK ON IT. SUPER SMOOTH ACTION AND LOOKS LIKE IT JUST CAME OUT OF THE BOX. YOU WILL PROBABLY NEVER FIND ANOTHER ONE OF THESE FROM 2008. $2200. ALL LAWS APPLY.
