Hello,
I need help identifying an old Marlin rifle I recently purchased. It is a 22 long rifle semi-auto that is magazine fed. The only marking are on the top of the barrel stamped "The Marlin Firearms Corporation New Haven Conn. U.S.A - patented" and the side of the barrel at the receiver "22 long rifle only - smokeless greased"
The stock has a plastic unmarked butt plate.
The old style magazine holds 8 rounds and has the release button at the bottom rear of the magazine itself.
The safety is at the rear of the receiver. It is a flat bar of metal with a grooved finger tab that pulls to the rear to go on un-safe.
The receiver puts me in mind of a Winchester model 74 without the push button take down.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
Scott
