Marlin ~ Model 60 ~ .22 LR

The Marlin Model 60 is a semi-automatic rifle that fires the .22 LR rimfire cartridge. It was in continuous production from 1960 to 2020 and the company says it is the most popular rifle of its kind in the world. Major features include a micro-groove barrel, a cross-bolt safety, hardwood stock with Monte Carlo comb, and brass or blued steel inner magazine tube. The Model 60 is well-suited for small-game hunting and vermin control, as well as for serious but low-cost target practice while preparing for hunting with larger rifles. The relatively large ammunition capacity is adequate for casual recreational target shooting, plus the low price and ease of handling makes it well-suited as a first rifle by young hunters just learning to use a semi-automatic rifle. This example shows some pitting on the barrel but otherwise is in great shape. Rifle topped off with a Simmons scope.
