The venerable little .22lr - the bad economy gun

I have parts coming that we needed. One order is a lot and the main item in the lot was the mag plate/screw and action screw. Once l verify the round ejects l will ship you the ejector!

Needing a magazine in my search l had to laugh at this CRAZY price! Really? Found one for $33

@19foxtrot right now there are 2 factory Marlin 80 magazines. One with the steel follower and the other one is the more common plastic follower. These will fit your Marlin 20. Right now no bids on them with 4 says left. The starting bid is starting at $50 and $5 shipping.

meh, my bench isnt anywhere big enough to need her help cleaning it off… besides, i dont want help in cleaning it cause i have a system and a place for everything.. if she started “putting things away” i’d never find anything ever again. Now my Office is a different critter all to gether. its the equivelent of your gun room, except i use it as an office as well I do love how your room is shaping up though. looks good!! You do inspirei us all though Greg. that’s the truth.

oh man that would help out considerably. I appreciate that!! looks like you have a great assortment there of the parts that you need and then some. luckily when i bought the stock it has m ost of the loose parts that i needed already installed. I have a spare magazine and wondered what it was from.. now working on this action, i know what it is from. luckily i didnt loose themag yet.
That is pretty high for that little ol mag.. i cant belive the price he advertised.. thats insane.. here i thought 33 was high lol. thats like the cost of the rifle

Great link for the mags Greg thanks for sharing it!

Here is a odd ball! I don’t recall ever seeing one. Sent to me by my son asking about it. Researched and it was in production for only 2 years 1986/87. 22 mag X 4! Anyone else?


They built more 22 LR than magnum

never seen it… it looks pretty cool though for sure… for a 2 year run it may be a neat novelty for the collection… does it fire all 4 at once? i bet it does.

I haven’t ever heard of one but I like it. I hate to admit it but I am a sucker for little pocket pistols. I have collected several in .25acp. Colt, FN, Browning, Mauser, Walther and Sauer & Sohn. There is just something about them that I like. :+1:

This rifle has been apart for 20 yrs and missing parts. I bought it for my oldest son when he was 9 years old. He refinished the stock back then and broke it down. Then in short he went through a divorce and parts were lost. 20 yrs later back in service. That is the original sling l bought…still with it.
