Help me identify this .22 please

ImChance
I just received this old (?) .22 rifle today, and was wondering if any of you could help me get some info on it.

It is a single shot .22 rifle, barrell measures 24" from where bullet sits in barrel, to end of barrel.
Markings are:

RANGER 22 S-L-LR-M34
--MADE IN THE USA--

(typed exactly as it shows on barrel)

The barrell has a iron sight, with adjustable "range" or whatever its called thing, for adjusting elevation.

It is a bolt-action single shot.....don't know any things else that might help with identification, other than pictures.

Thanks for any help that you all have to offer!

    I have the same gun, w/ orginal stock. Any idea what years they were made/how much they're worth?

    The crossover lists show this as a Model 34A. Going through Brophy however, I cannot find that Marlin ever built a model 34A. The photos above appear to me to be a model 65 which was built 1935-1937. As near as I can tell, it is the only marlin .22 built with a schnable forend tip. For the years known, if sold for $5.65-$6.75. This may not have been a production rifle for Marlin when built for Sears, but all that I know of were. $$ value will be very modest for a Ranger or any department store gun, no more than $150, likely below $100.

    My Dad had the exact same rifle.When my Dad died I brought it home and refinished the stock. I lent it to my brother. When he died I didn't have the guts to ask his wife for the gun.It sure was tack driver.

    And this has come to pass,not to stay.
