Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Marlin Model 60's not all that cheap anymore

My father gave my son one last year from 1982 that had never been fired, he even had an old Bushnell scope that he had bought and never mounted. I picked up a set of rings mounted the scope and was off to the range with my son. After about 10 shots it started acting weird. Got home and discovered the buffer in the back of the receiver had dry rotted and fell apart. Picked up a couple off Ebay and it's run fine ever since.
