This is a deluxe version of an old stand by. It is a very handsome piece. The fit and finish are quite nice, perhaps a bit better than the plainer versions of the Marlin 60. I had an earlier 60 with a factory laminated stock and this one is an improvement. The older version had thinner wood in the fore-end, so thin that installing sling lugs was problematic. This version has lugs installed at the factory and the stock is robust enough to absorb some rough handling. I think that the Marlin 60 is the best of the plinking semi-auto 22 rifles. I like the high capacity of the tube magazine and 60 has a well deserved reputation for reliability and accuracy that has been established over decades and this one fits right into that tradition. That being said, this version, like all of the Marlin 60s I have ever known, has a mediocre trigger. Not bad, especially for a plinking "fun gun" but with room for improvement. The stainless steel and the laminated stock make this an all weather plinker or small game gun. No Marlin 60 should be left in the safe too long. It is for shooting and I think the stainless steel is worth it so you can use in any time in any weather.
