What are the first 2 digits of the serial number?

 

[guitarguy]

The # is 71-15XXXX so I believe that makes it a 1971
According to oldguns.net:
All Marlins manufactured from 1969 to 1990:
The first two digits of the serial number designate the year of manufacture, either as the last two digits of the year (in 1969-71) or as a number code (1971 and later).

what type of trade are you looking for?

 

[guitarguy]

Nothing specific, I could use a little .25, 32 or .380 for my wife or a Ruger .22 pistol maybe a Marlin 30-30.
Must be firearms related. Really looking for some cash so if I trade I need to be able to recover my investment....
