What’s Included
- Marlin Model 60W .22 LR semi-automatic rifle with inlaid NRA 125th Anniversary "Safety • Ethics • Sportsmanship" medallion
The commemorative medallion in the stock marks the NRA's 125th Anniversary and is factory inlaid, adding a distinct identifier to this Model 60W. The walnut-stained hardwood stock has a straight comb, is uncheckered, and wears the black Marlin hard buttplate, giving it the familiar Marlin rimfire profile.
The 22-inch steel barrel features Marlin's Micro-Groove rifling. The bore is excellent, with a clean, mirror finish and sharp rifling. Chambered in .22 LR, this setup is a proven combination for reliable rimfire performance.
The semi-automatic blowback action feeds from an under-barrel tubular magazine with a 13+1 capacity. A brass-colored follower with a knurled end cap facilitates loading, and ejection is to the right side. An additional reinforcing screw behind the trigger guard is present in the stock.
Iron sights include a ramped front and open rear. The alloy receiver is blued and cut with a 3/8 inch groove for tip-off mounts. Overall construction reflects Marlin's North Haven, Connecticut production of the 1990s, and the serial number indicates 1996 manufacture.
Ergonomics are straightforward, with a 13.5 inch length of pull and a clean, functional layout. The combination of the commemorative stock medallion, Micro-Groove barrel, and classic Model 60 operating system makes this a notable variant for Marlin enthusiasts.
