I am aware that the Glenfield 60 is pretty much the same as a Marlin model 60 however upon disassembling mine I noticed some minor differences. At any rate I was wondering will this breach bolt be compatiable.http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/default.aspx?productNumber=429195 I also noticed during the disassembly that the other metal parts such as the feed ramp had horrible pitting all over. I had several malfunctions that I have never seen occur before; I will attempt to explain what was happening.
The gun would stovepipe however would have already chambered a round. The rim of the stove-piped round would get caught behind the next round that is ready to be chambered. :cuss:This a very difficult jam to clear with a tube feed rifle. After a day of shooting with this type of jam every other shot I was tempted to just sell the gun.
 
Wow. As to the stovepiping it sounds like the ejector may need tweaking to kick the empties out properly. The spring that runs the shell lifter has one end under the lifter, and the long end sits on top of the feed ramp, canted towards the ejection port. If that's out of position or bent wrong it doesn't work correctly.
