Does Marlin make, fold and ink their own boxes?  Or are they bought from another company ready to fill?
my guess would be they contract with a commercial printing shop.

those kinds of mistakes happen.  when i used to work on the press at the olympian(before it went belly up) part of the job was to catch errors.  i once found "washington" spelled wrong on the page header! :chuckle:
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun

So I guess the consensus is to just shoot the rifle and enjoy it? I also have a Remington 512 Sportmaster that was made in December of 1950, basically the same setup. It is a tube fed bolt action .22 s, l, lr. Its a keeper, so I guess I just have to have doubles of everything!

Well I went and shot the 981T and it is sweet! I guess I need to either find a way to justify it or sell something to make room for it. I just wish it had a nice wood stock and the pro-fire trigger. I have looked at the possiblity of getting a stock from a 983 to put on there and finding out if the pro-fire trigger is compatible and maybe Marlin would sell me one.
