    Nice git. I've got a Mohawk that was missing the mag and charge handle when I got it. Fixed it. PAX

      Awesome, yea I didn't even know it was a magazine tube lol thought it was a set screw to take the buttstock pad off... yea I'll only run a patch down the barrel and clean off all the wool fibers. Cant wait to shoot it, I know it hasn't been shot in over 40 years or more

        OP
        That picture you posted looks like the brown version, just like mine.

          I have a Nylon 66 also. Great 22 rifle - super easy to shoot accurately and very reliable. I also like the long forend to grip further out without burning the hand.

                Be aware---taking apart a Nylon 66 is a difficult task---many small parts---and MUCH MORE DIFFICULT to put back together again! Ask me how I know...

                  I'll do my best to remember to look that Glenfield up in one of my books along with the op's JC Higgins.. either way that's a dandy scope, as well as the K4 naturally

                  and without going too far astray, here's a rare Marlin 500A 3-7x20 on a 1975 Marlin 783..



                  I just love old vintage scopes, if I ever find another Marlin, I'll mount it on that first year 1971 783 below it, notice the early barrel band front sight

                  I started out with nothing - and I still have most of it

                    Youtube has some decent disassembly/assembly videos for the Nylon 66. With a little help from the videos, I found it pretty easy to breakdown for deep cleaning.

                      Saw this at lunch and had to come home and dig mine out of the safe, July 1978 build. I cannot remember the last time I shot it other than cleaning it every 5 or so years it has probably been 30 years! My stepdad gave it to me new for X-mas in 1980, 14 years old at the time, still in very good shape. Going to the range with me next time I go.

                            It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.

                                I heard several times: DO NOT completely take it apart. I just remove the cover, spray CLP into the breech and run a patch thru the barrel from the muzzle, wipe the unburned powder off of and out of the breech and put it back together. Do it however you want, I will never completely strip mine.Awesome little rifles.
