Sorting thru some keepers and some that are going to auction and came across this little # Its a magazine fed Marlin Firearms Corp. with the last pat. date 1917. It is stamped 22 long rifle only smokeless and greased. Any comments on this one as far as rarity,worthlessness,keeper?????
No idea, but it sure sounds like an interesting old rifle.
If it's in good condition and the price is right, I'm sure it would be a good deal.
Old 22's are becoming very collectable due to their lower price.
Lots of people like myself would like to build a collection of old guns but just don't have 3-5K to plunk down on one gun. Most RF's can be had for $500 and under, some are more, but they are still somewhat reasonable even thought 15 years ago, people were almost giving them away. Times have changed.

I'll guess it's a Model 50.
The Marlin Model 50, semi-automatic rifle was made from 1931 to 1935. It was the only Marlin semi-automatic rifle to fire from an "open bolt".
Here is a picture. I don't think it's the model 50. The take down screww is located forward of the mag well. Do you have a picture of your magazine, I've misplaced mine and I'm not sure the one I have in the rifle is the right one. Thanks
