Marlin (Glenfield) Mod 60 won't eject

[gordyboard02]

I picked up an older Marlin Mod 60 that I just took to the range after I did a thorough cleaning and inspection. It cycles to the point of ejection and every time fails to eject. As I am not familiar with this particular firearm's cycle of operations I could not locate a fix. Any suggestions would be great!

Go to egunparts and take a look at the Model 60 diagram.

Check to see whether your ejector lifter spring is working correctly.

With any luck its a cheap easy repair.

Good luck. Great little .22s.

won't eject

Here's a link to the owners manual. It will show you how to field strip and inspect. Sounds like a missing, bent, broken, dirty (pick one) ejector.

This is a PDF format and takes a few seconds to download depending on your connection speed.

Here's a link to a PDF file that shows the complete tear down of the model 60. I have just recently finished a Glenfield 60 re-build and this was a great tool to have. Parts are available at Midway USA, Brownells, and Numrich, your choice. This is what mine looks like after a good cleanup and a few parts replaced. It's a shooter now, hasn't coughed or sputtered on any type of ammo I've run through it. Just stay away from anything hyper sonic.
