I have seen Model 37 Marlins in "The Gun Digest" twice in the past year with one asking price of around $300 and the other over $800.
I have one made around 1920 I think.
Mine's bolt is worn where the alignment lug on the bottom of the bolt does not fully support the cartridge which results in the case head blowing out into the female portion of the alignment slot in the chamber. This allows powder to blow back into the shooter's face.
I am looking for a replacement bolt as my local gunsmith says it can't be repaired.
Do you know where I can buy a bolt?
Big Shrek knows :)

Parts are also the same for a Marlin model 29...the 29 has a slightly shorter barrel & half-size magazine tube, that's the only differences.
