Next up we have the Marlin Model 81 DL made in 1952 by our estimate. It's a tube magazine fed bolt action .22 rimfire chambered deluxe model complete with aperture sight, sling swivels, and select walnut stock.
The Marlin Model 81 was made in three different versions from 1939 to 1971 with slight variations in versions as new patent designs came along with new Marlin innovations. This particular 1952 (?) rifle is what I believe to be, after my research. a "Second Variation" as it has the newly designed extractor released in 1952 but not the newly designed rifling (Micro-Groove) added to the line in 1953. Again, this is just research and I am open to discussion in the comments about any of your research which might shine a light on its origins and history.
Come along and explore this rifle with me on what happens to be.....MY BIRTHDAY! Thanks for tuning in, it's an honor to have you here.
Here is the Milsurp Garage video on the Marlin Model 80, the box magazine fed sister rifle we have explored in the past which is interesting to compare as it is what I believe to be a "Third Version" of this design.
