The Marlin Model 60, manufactured by Marlin Firearms Co., is one of the most popular .22 LR caliber rifles ever produced. It was first introduced in 1960, marking over half a century of continuous production. This semi-automatic rifle's hallmark is its patented "micro-groove" barrel, a feature that significantly increases the accuracy potential of the firearm.
This rifle is in excellent condition, showing only faint signs of any prior use or handling. The bore condition is equally excellent. The finish is blued, common for many traditional firearms, providing durability and protection from rust and damage. Its action is a straightforward blowback design. It has a fixed tubular magazine with a 14+1 capacity.
The Model 60 comes with a 19-inch barrel and a beautiful walnut stock that features a plastic butt plate. The front sight is a fixed blade with the rear sight cut to accommodate for an optic. It includes an AIM 3-9X40E Illuminated reticle MOA Reticle optic, adding an advanced targeting system to the proven rifle design. The optic has been function tested and works, but it does not come with a battery.
Manufactured in the United States, the Marlin Model 60 is an exquisite piece of craftsmanship, boasting a powerful .22 LR caliber, perfect for both small game hunting and target shooting. The sturdy blued finish not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also means you own a firearm designed to withstand tough weather conditions. This model comes with a Blowback action - a popular choice for enthusiasts seeking swift, smooth firing without jamming. Its generous 14 +1 capacity reduces the need for constant reloading, making it the go-to for extended shooting sessions. A notable upgrade is the included AIM 3-9X40E Illuminated reticle MOA Reticle optic - this provides sharp target acquisition even in low-light conditions, greatly improving accuracy.
The Model 60's robust features and reliable performance make it a worthy addition to any firearms collection.
