Re-tooling the rimfire collection based on what the kids shoot the most. Have a few marlins to thin out
1) early model 80 -- my guess is this is pre 1920, non-serialized. Has 2 magazines and feeds S, L, LR. only issue is one of the extractors was replaced with an after market and it needs to be filed/shaped a bit to reliably eject. Brass bead front sight, very cool antique rimfire with what I believe is a walnut stock (the real stuff, not stained birch). Beautiful old gun with some lovely patina on the barrel. I've barely shot it in the decades i've owned it -- certainly less than 100 rounds. Was more of a nostalgic collector piece for me, but it certainly does shoot. Includes 2 model 80/780/20/25 7 round magazines, which are $30+ each if you can find them these days. $150 obo
2) Glenfield model 75 - this was similar to the marlin model 99M1. I converted to a youth model size as a trainer for my kids -- shortened length of pull to ~11inches, and had barrel cut/recrowned to 16.25 inches. Has an old Sweet 22 scope on it -- scope works and holds zero, but has seen better days overall, only have the 36gr turret for the scope. Rifle has been cleaned and rebuilt internally w/ new springs, and has had a full feed throat conversion to feed reliably. Set it up just to teach the basics to the kids, never bothered worring about more than shooting cans at 25 yds, but i'd imagine it could do much more than that if given the attention. $160 SPM
3) Western Auto Revelation 120 -- this is an old model marlin/glenfield 60 that was branded for sale at Western auto general stores. It has been fully restored tip to tail -- refinished stock, repainted receiver, lightly polished bolt, new springs and feed throat conversion, and cleaned up trigger. Has a great condition BSA sweet 22 scope, and all 3 bullet weight turrets. This rifle is remarkably accurate for what it is. have repeatedly shot dime-size 10 round groups at 50yds with good ammo. You'll see in pics that the stock has an inlayed Georgia Carry coin that replaced a missing inlay in the factory stock. $250 obo with the scope.
Will let them all go together for $475 near buford. Trade interest would be a 10/22 charger w/ brace and threaded barrel (no take down models), or a threaded marlin bolt action 22 (mod 880,980, or xt-22), or ruger precision rimfire
