kc17 622 Posted July 26, 2020 I finally made it to the range with my new to me Marlin 60 that I picked up from @dajonga and I like it! I told my wife I think she'll like it also, and so will our nieces & nephews. Reloading is slightly tedious, but on the upside that slows me down and helps me appreciate the range time. I also sent the first 50 rounds downrange from my SIG P320, I like that too! I just wish ammo wasn't so darn expensive and scarce! Thanks again to David for the smooth transaction of a fine rifle. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
124gr9mm 857 Posted July 26, 2020 Glad you enjoyed it. I taught all my kids to shoot on our Marlin model 60. Still a favorite when we go plinking at the range... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very, very happy to hear you are enjoying it. A Marlin 60 was my first rifle and they will always hold a spot in my heart. I woulda kept this one had I not stumbled into a near perfect long barrel, long tube, LSHO version last year. I really don't need 3 model 60 rifles. FYI...I never did have a look at the buffer...they tend to get brittle and break after a few years. I wish you and yours many years of enjoyment. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dajonga 396 Posted August 2, 2020 That does look to be in good shape. I usually throw 1 in the Midway/Brownells cart just to add to the stash for my fleet of Marlin 60s/795s/70Ps. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
