Its 19-inch Micro-Groove barrel, 14-round tubular magazine, and last-shot bolt hold-open combine reliable function with easy shooting, while the lightweight alloy receiver and polymer stock keep overall weight low.

What’s Included
- Marlin Model 60 .22 LR rifle with 14-round fixed tubular magazine
First released in 1960, the Model 60 earned its reputation through dependable blowback operation and a generous magazine capacity. This rifle retains the classic 14-round brass-inner tube with yellow follower, allowing plenty of trigger time between reloads.
The 19-inch steel barrel uses Marlin’s Micro-Groove system with 16 shallow lands and a 1:16 RH twist. This design reduces bullet deformation and supports consistent accuracy with a wide range of .22 LR loads.
Its aluminum-alloy receiver is factory-grooved for easy scope mounting, yet the open sights remain ready. A hoodless ramp front sight pairs with an elevation-adjustable rear buckhorn for quick alignment on small targets.
The black polymer stock features molded diamond checkering for a secure grip and integral sling-swivel studs. A 13.75-inch length of pull fits most adult shooters comfortably while keeping overall weight manageable.
Additional functional touches include a right-side charging handle, cross-bolt safety, and automatic last-shot bolt hold-open—features that simplify operation and reinforce the Model 60’s enduring popularity.
