Any Comments on the Marlin 60

[Altahick]

yup like everyone has said they are awesome. i have one and i really like it, and i like the tube mag sometimes better than a standard mag. the only times its jammed is either with really crappy ammo or when i didnt clean it in a couple thousand rounds.

True story, friend of mine came over to the house said he had a rifle he wanted to see. Marlin 60 like mine. He brings it out we go up to the old pidgeon ridge shooting area up 39. Shoot all day, come home. I say lets clean it, my buddy says clean? I go okay, take the stock off and old powder spills out like a pepper shaker with the lid off. Get the action out and its black with power residue. Took hours to clean. This rifle didnt have one ftf the whole day before i cleaned it. It must have fired 1000s of rounds. Thats when i was sold on the old boring 60.

they are neat but you have to know the bolt stop only stops the bolt about half way so you have to drop the bolt then cycle the bolt to start shooting

their plastic is not as sturdy as the stuff ruger uses but at least on the marlin you are not going to break the scope mount off

Marlin 60 is a great gun. And it won't be an assault weapon like the 10/22.

love this .22lr rifle, it was my 3rd gun put over 1000 rounds! I've since bought a 10/22 & I picked up a Ruger SR22. so my marlin model 60 will go to my daughter when she turns 4.

4 is a good age right?

See the Marlin 795 Megathreads

The 795 is just a 60 with a detachable box magazine.
Both the 60 and 795 are highly reliable. There are millions of more of these rifles out there then the Ruger 10/22.

this has been covered many times. it has a fixed mag, but it's greater than 10 rds. it'll be an assault rifle.

Get it you will not be disappointed, love my 60 so much I'm adding a 795 to the stable just cuz its the same rifle but detachable mag fed.

Mine was worth every penny. Have almost bought another multiple times.

I have two, a relatively new one and a SS model made in the 90's. There is one major difference in the way that the action is built (side plates are thinner on the new one) but that difference doesn't seem to affect the performance. Both cycle with most ammo. The stainless rifle is way more accurate than the price would indicate.

Can anybody here besides me remember when they were marketed as "Glenfields", not Marlins?

[JohnCCW]

Glenfield is the low end stock version. Pressed "checkering" if you can call it that...
Same gun otherwise, shoots good. I bought one when I turned 18, and had one given to me by someone who bought it to commit suicide, then had second thoughts. I was happy to take that off his hands.
