I inherited a Glenfield/Marlin model 60 from my grandfather when he passed away during my senior year of high school 34 years ago. I’ve refinished the stock and cleaned it many times over the years, and still hunt with it to this day, and someday so will my boys. Firearms like this last for generations. Enjoy making memories with your rifle!!!

A Marlin 60 was my first rifle, way back in '83. Have never really had problems with it. Not too picky with ammo. Taught myself to break it down for a good cleaning. Thank you for taking the time to educate us!

So, a couple of thoughts about the Model 60. I am the original owner of a Model 60 I purchased in 1980, still runs beautifully. I usually take it out to the range a couple of times a month and run 50-100 rounds through it. Have it zeroed in at 100 yards with a $40 scope and it is VERY accurate. This gun has a REPUTATION for being able to function well even when it is dirty as can be. And, we all know how dirty 22lr rounds can be. Now I usually clean the gun after every couple of hundred rounds not because it needs it to function but because I am retired and have the time. Prior to that I would clean the gun maybe once a year, sometimes longer. This is a GREAT rifle. Second, when you take the bolt out of the stock, on the inside of the stock for that bolt hole there is a receptor thighamajig.(Don't know what it is called.) This can come out and if you lose it you cannot reaffix the upper properly to the stock. So be careful and always keep track of it when cleaning the rifle. (I am probably just going to glue it in place next time I clean the rifle as it can be a pain in the backside to keep track of.) Third, I don't remember the reason why, but I was strongly told at purchase, when reattaching the upper to the stock the action should be in the open position. Don't sell this rifle, with some decent maintenance, you can hand it down to your grandkids, and it will still work fine.

I'm a toothpick guy when gun cleaning... I guess I'm old school, as I use carb cleaner, an air gun, WD40 as a rinsing step, I use Hoppes gun oil and also 3 in 1oil, and touches of red grease where needed... I became a dear friend to a gentleman gunsmith in Belleville Illinois back in the early 1980s for the last 6 years of his life, and those were the most informative and enjoyable "gun" years of my life so far.... We built a 9" barrel for my Ruger Security Six .357... I have NEVER heard of or run across anything like that before or since...STILL have that deer slayer....My eyes were far better than his, so I was proud to get to help him whenever I could... He was very old school, but his methods and ways are as relevant today as they were when HE was a young man... They actually found him at his lathe out in his shop with the lathe still running where he passed from heart failure at 94 years of age... A very knowledgeable man....

The Marlin Glenfield 60 was MY first rifle and I purchased it myself at the age of 9 in Belle Missouri at the Western Auto there.... Dad of course drove, but I picked out my rifle and ammo and bought it myself with my grass cutting money in 1965... I picked up 2 other Model 60's thru the years and have never once had any of the issues you seem to be having..... and each of them have had thousands of rounds run thru them.... as with ANY firearm, it's good to at least keep them half way clean with minim al oil now and then.. They are very reliable, very accurate, and a pleasure to shoot... even though Ruger came out with THEIR version (near exact same mechanical action) 4 years after the Marlin 60, it took many years for the Ruger version to surpass the best selling .22 rifle in history, the Marlin 60. and yes I have several 10/22 firearms, both pistols and rifles... Tear them down and compare their mechanics and parts.... It's amazing how Ruger was allowed to copy Marlin's design so close without any infringements... and by the way, one of the 10/22s I own was won outshooting another young man at a range talking up his rifle as I was there with my Glenfield 60..... I actually have 5 rifles I acquired that way thru my youth.... Dad would just look at me and grin and barely shake his head...

I have a Marlin model 60. My first gun my dad bought me when I was 10 or 11 back in the 80s. He bought it at K-Mart. Anyway, He cleaned at after we shot because I was just a kid. All he did was run a patch down the barrel from the muzzle end because he didn't break it down. Then he wiped down the outside. After growing up and someone taught me better. I now break it down to clean. It still has the sticker on the wooden stock down under the barrel.

@@azreloader5968 I too have the Model 60 and I have found that my issue was the ammo I was using. My particular model came out in 1980 (is in fantastic shape) and it wasn't until years later I found out that the 60 is designed for subsonic ammo, i.e. 1050 fps. CCI's Standard velocity at 1070 fps work quite fine. Beware of Remington Thunderbolt ammo. You can get a number of issues because it is not the best ammo out there as many on the internet can attest. When using higher fps ammo I'd either get jams or stove pipes. Now M Carbo has a spring designed for hypervelocity ammo for this model but, again, from my research shooting these higher fps bullets can damage the buffer. Sometimes the Ejector Lifter Spring can become out of alignment. There is a lot of good (and some so-so) KZbin videos on fixing/maintaining the Model 60. let us know if you resolved your issue.

Keep in mind this is my night time farm varmint defender. I probably blow through a good 25 rounds, EVERY, SINGLE, MONTH. It is also the squirrel gun. With my Simmons on there @50-75 yards it's headshot everytime.

Look at the bend on the ejector. If the lower pack was put pack onto the receiver without the bolt being locked/held to the rear. It will bend as they are forced together. Theres a good video here on the tube about using a nickel and penny to check the spacing. That it's bent correctly.

​​@@matthewbeaver5026i think they updated it to not do that because i have 2 and i cleaned them both the same wat and i didnt reattached with the bolt back and i bend the ejector spring like you said on one but not the other. I could he wrong though. I tried to bend it back with needlenose pliers seems like a thing that takes a little fine tuning. My more nicer model didnt bend the spring like that when i tried to put them back together. Its a bit of a finicky gun although very simple. I find it rather easy to hend that ejector spring as well as the guide rod spring and guide rod but other than that thing seems durable. Those little things are no big deal. The ejector spring lays in a channel to guide its tip through a channel in the bolt and if its not tweaked just perfectly it will rub against the inside of the channel on the bolt side and creates friction. If its too bent itll actually stop the bolt and lowrpack from properly mating you wont he able to reassemble the gun until you bend the spring back so it fits into the channel in the bolt as well as it has to properly hit the edge of the cartridge.

I use to buy guns and stocks for marlins at gun shows for $5.00 several semi-auto variation's. usually people assembled the wrong and broke a spring or a plastic piece and junked them. The other stupid thing the did was take the trigger group apart. I reanimated them it was a fun hobby. On the barrel I used Hoppies bore cleaner you apply it with a wire brush and let it sit. The bolt and Action area and trigger group I cleaned with a bowl of paint thinner and a tooth brush. Then the oil I use is singer sewing machine oil because its cheaper,...inside and out.

My Marlin experience is opposite - my grandfather gave me one for my 10th birthday in 1979. I ran about 7-8 bricks of .22's through it over the next 10 years, never cleaned it once. In my 20's I figured it was about due, so I took it apart and found a white U-shapes plastic thingy had broken, so I threw it away. It ran fine without it for another 10 years. I sold it to my aunt who still shoots it today. It's been cleaned maybe 5 times?? It's never failed to fire.

I didn't take the gun apart but basically put a little spray of gun lube in action and wiped the barrel down.

Also pay attention to the nylon recoil block at the back of the receiver it will wear down over time an may cause a problem. And remember a light lubricant works best don’t over lube ! Semi automatic rifles work best with just a little bit of lube!

Some .22 ammo runs filthy even when it has been properly stored. I use to love running 40gr Yellow Jackets back in the 80s, but those were notorious for clogging up actions. I kept an old toothbrush and one of my sister's nail files I swiped to clear the cutouts around the breech. I was a reckless little shit back in the day with regard to gun maintenance. Whatever I could find at the spur of the moment to spray on the action to loosen up fouling, I used it......gasoline....rubbing alcohol....mineral spirits....CRC...etc. Didn't seem to bother that Model 60 much. I still have that gun and it still runs. But it looks like it was used to conquer Hell.

Other than cleaning the older model 60s are notorious for bent guide rods and worn out recoil springs from running high velocity ammo like cci mini mag. You can get those parts for about 20 bucks.

He has took it apart and everything is pretty savvy, but he can’t figure out why the shell won’t eject like its suppose to. Do you think it’s what you are talking about at 5:15 where you cleaned those 2 little holes. I think he gets 2 or 3 shots and then it jams up and is really bothering him that he can’t figure it out

There is also an ejector problem that cropped up during some version of the Model 60. There are videos here on KZbin about it and the part needed to replace it. If cleaning it up well (and ensuring it is properly assembled) doesn't solve your issue, maybe look for those videos.

The Marlin model 60 has some intricacies in re assembly that if not adhered to can really damage the springs in the rifle causing malfunctions. While this was a video on general cleaning, look for much better videos on this particular rifle. 95% of the failure to feed and failure to eject issues with this rifle are from improper re assembly procedures.

Tooth brush and diesel fuel. ATF overnight if reel dirty. Then clean with starting fluid if any plastic or if all steel Carb cleaner. With more toothbrush work maybe some tooth pick work if crazy. Then finish off with 15w40 in warm weather or 0-w20 in cold weather. Balistal is great for long term storage. Never use WD40.

My safety button in the trigger assembly is stuck. It won't move back and forth between the red fire indicator in the safety. I don't know how that happened, but I was wondering if there is anything I can do to get it unstuck. I thought about trying to use WD 40 but that might just make it worse.

I was having feeding and ejecting issues on my Marlin model 60 I managed to fix the ejecting problem by using the nickel trick but I’m still having feeding issues even though I’ve taken apart and cleaned every part, nook and cranny atleast 20 times now it will sometimes load fine if I pull open the bolt and let it slam forward but if I slowly feed the bolt forward the bullet will pop up and get stuck inside the receiver. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? I’ve tried everything even replaced the tube mag with no change.

WELL ! I think you should have shown re-assembly, especially for people like DREW. Drew, did you get this working?? You should search Y-T for Arrowdodger's videos about the Marlin 60 Series, he's much more knowledgeable and precise in his work. My 'guess' is that you assembled it with the hammer down and that's blocking the motion. Another possibility is that you've tightened the action screws too tight; the action is sensitive to that also. Another reason this video is not very helpful. Just my opinion - have had 60's since the 1960s. Best luck, Drew.

I just wanted to let you know that I love the video on the Marlin Model 60. I own one and I've had it for better than 40 years! And, it's only been cleaned once in the years that I've had it! So, I've taken it apart and cleaned it, got all the dirt and garbage out. It looks like it's a new gun again. Now comes the problem. When I screw the block back on the barrel, the slide/extractor will not move. I have oiled everything and wiped the excess off. What am I doing wrong?? Help!!!!

Somewhere, somewhen, there is some blue and yellow multi-appendaged silicone-based life form wondering when he will no longer get beaned in the head (or whatever passes for one) with little fiddly bits of metal at random points of his day…

It's a shame and not surprising Ruger hasn't started production on them as well as parts yet, same thing happened when Victorinox bought Wenger. As for the mechanical issues, yeah the springs, these things have been made since before Mesopotamia invented beard oil so they wear out and the recoil spring guide rod is not hardened very well and is easy to bend. The last main issue off the top of my head is any one starting serial below 26xxxx. The older trigger group used an extractor that wears out that is not replaceable anymore since iirc it's a part of the elevator. Kinda just gotta slap a newer one on it, which is the "condition" mine is in.

I recently acquired a model 60 and, I’ve read great things about this rifles accuracy. I was planning on using it to squirrel hunt when it’s wet out instead of my ruger 10/22 LVT because the model 60 is stainless. I took it to the range and was unable to shoot a group smaller than 2-3” at 50yd. I used cci standard velocity (which groups .5-1” or less at 50 from all my other rifles). I also tried cci stinger, federal automatch, and some cheap aguila stuff. It’s got some kind of tasco 3-9 optic on top. Does anyone have any experience with one of these rifles grouping like absolute dogwater?

Hello Common Patriot, I just recently picked up my Marlin Model 60 after a winning bid with an online auction. Anyways I have been watching videos on KZbin on this firearm and they all have a bolt release next to trigger guard... Mine does not... I know it's an older model because it has the 22" barrel and holds 18 rounds rather than the 14 after they modified their firearms in the mid 1980's.... I believe mine also has a walnut stock.... Does anyone out there know of I may have one of the first models made or know why my Marlin Model 60 does not have a bolt release. (And no it's not just broken off or missing, the gun was not made with a release on it) Thanks in advance for any advice !
