Compared to the Winchester 94, then the predominant lever-action hunting rifle, the Model 36 was somewhat heavier with a simpler internal mechanism and a full pistol grip-type buttstock in contrast to the Winchester 94's straight grip stock. All of these firearms featured a solid-top receiver made of forged steel and incorporated side ejection of fired cartridges. In 1936, with only minor changes to the stock, forearm, and sights, the Model 1893 was redesignated the Model 1936 (soon renamed the Model 36). Hepburn, the Model 1893 incorporated a new locking bolt system and a two-piece firing pin. The Model 336 is a direct development of the Marlin Model 1893 rifle which was produced from 1893 to 1936.
