Marlin Model 60SB .22 LR Semi-Automatic Rifle, Stainless, 22-Inch Barrel, 14+1 Capacity
The Model 60SB pairs Marlin’s time-tested rimfire action with stainless steel metalwork and a satin-silver aluminum receiver, giving this 1997 production rifle enhanced corrosion resistance that is uncommon in economy .22s. A 22-inch Micro-Groove barrel, 14-shot tubular magazine, and birch Monte Carlo stock round out a package that delivers reliable plinking, small-game performance, and easy maintenance.

The stainless SB variant was introduced in the mid-1990s as a weather-resistant upgrade to the classic Model 60. This 1997 example retains the lightweight feel of the original while adding a satin-silver finish on the receiver and barrel that shrugs off moisture and handling marks better than blued steel.
Its 22-inch stainless barrel uses Marlin’s 16-groove Micro-Groove rifling with a 1:16 right-hand twist, designed to maximize accuracy with high-velocity .22 LR ammunition. The barrel’s length also works with the 14-shot tubular magazine to provide a balance of velocity and capacity that rimfire shooters appreciate.
The semi-automatic blowback action includes an automatic last-shot bolt hold-open for quick reload checks. A cross-bolt safety offers straightforward, familiar operation, and the receiver is drilled and tapped for optics, giving users the option to add a scope without gunsmithing.
Marlin’s walnut-tone birch stock features a Monte Carlo comb that aligns naturally with iron sights or optics, plus factory sling-swivel studs for easy field carry. At 13.75 inches, the length of pull fits most adult shooters while keeping overall handling lively.
Front and rear iron sights come standard: a hoodless stainless ramp with orange blade up front, and an adjustable folding rear sight. Combined with the included sling, the rifle leaves little else needed to head straight to the range.
