I purchased my first Marlin rimfire rifle today it's an unfired, new old stock, closet queen Marlin 60W in excellent ++ condition......there is a medallion mounted in the stock that says, "Saftey, Ethics, Sportsmanship" and the serial # is 0736****.
From searching the date of mfg. is a bit confusing......if I subtract 07 from 2000 I get 1993 as a mfg year but yet I ran across a sight someplace that states that with the above medallion the rifle was made in 1996.
Till I decided I wanted a Mdl. 60 a couple of weeks ago I had no idea how hard they are to find locally or in online stores.......is it because they have been discontinued ?
I plan to shoot the rifle but the trigger pull leaves a lot to be desired because of being heavy.
I won't embaras myself by saying how much I paid but let's just say it was considerably more than the last price Cabela's was selling them for which was $189.99.
