Nice Score...!!

Does it have the plastic "micro-grooved barrel bulls eye" inlet in to the stock...!?

My "Squirrel" { circa 1980 }

The scope is a cheap one that came with it...and I have since removed it, as I prefer open iron sights when shooting.

Also own another Marlin...a bolt action in .22 short, long, and long rifle:

My "Bulls Eye" { circa 1960 }

Thanks...it looked almost NIB when my friend gifted it to me for helping him move to his new digs...claiming he grew up using it. I refused the gesture, but he insisted.

Did you get yours to the range yet...?

( The Marlins really are tack drivers... )

Lock and Load...

OK...

#1...The M60 FTL problem could be a spring problem...trouble is I'm a hands on technician...and I would need to see and feel the problem first hand...

#2...The Model 99m1 problem...again feeding from a tubular magazine...it could be anything...springs usually the culprit.

You took them both apart from what I gather by the pictures above...did you see any excessive wear on any parts...

If I had detail stripped mine, new springs would have been a must. How's the tubular magazine springs on both ?

Sorry I could not help further...like I said...seeing and feeling what's going on is how would know how to proceed.
