Just rebuilt a Model 60 Marlin/Glenfield "old style' action assembly. I was having lots of trouble until I found your video, Thanks a Bunch!!! The springs are not nearly as bad as I imagined.
+Mr. Tolly (AKA: fatmantolly) I've got a Glenfield and a Marlin. Also a Remington Nylon 66, plus an old "Ranger" single shot that my grandmother shot when she was a young girl. All good ol shootin irons! Good video.
+Mr. Tolly (AKA: fatmantolly) Agreed, they are more accurate also because of the thicker, micro grooved barrels. Ask any gunsmith how many tube fed .22s they have to fix compared to the bottom magazine models.
outstanding video! I received an abused Marlin 60 (1978) from an old friend and I am rebuilding it. The assembly was completely taken apart and put in a ziplock bag so.... Your video saved me a lot of headaches. All I need to do now is get two E clips and a new buffer spring! THANKS A LOT! I owe you a beer!
+Patrick Noble Buffer spring is available from Brownells or Midway but you may want to check with a local gun shop too, the e-clips are available from most hardware stores or auto parts stores.
+Mr. Tolly (AKA: fatmantolly) Thanks for the information. I ordered the Buffer spring from Brownells and the E Clips on Sunday night from McMaster-Carr and received the E Clips today Tuesday (fast). Great videos and I will be telling others about them!
Thank you! youre a life saver! i borrowed my uncles mod. 60. I wanted to clean it really well before returning it. as i was cleaning the bolt ot what ever you call it the hammer and feed assembly got knocked off my work bench and everything flew apart. but thanks to you i got it back together in working order.
I got a problem with my model 60,,,,I've never took it apart ,but there I s something binding in there, got the gun at a pawn shop,guide rod was bent,so either it came from factory like that or someone messed with it.
Not certain how the rod would get bent, but it is fairly common on these to bend the recoil spring while reinstalling the bolt in the receiver. I suspect that was how the rod got bent too. Fortunately, the model 60 (Marlin and Glenfield are the same) is a very common rifle and parts should be easy to find. If you can't find a local gun shop with the parts in stock gunpartscorp.com will have them.
Hi, I have a marlin model 75. It would jam up more than shoot. I disassembled It and cleaned It. Now, it won't shoot. No click. What would you recommend? Thank you. Joseph
Pulled mine apart to repair a broken buffer. Springs and things went every where. Not good, until I found your video. I couldn't tell which way the hammer spring keeper went on. I saw you has a paper clip in yours. but which way does the little keeper go on or does it matter?
+Mr. Tolly (AKA: fatmantolly) Thank you, I went back and watched it again. Now I understand that notch and the disconnector. I'll put it together and see what I get. Thanks for the video, couldn't have don't it with out it.
THANK YOU! The camera and lighting could be better, but... after watching this video a few times with all the parts in front of me, after literally many hours of patience with these microscopic parts, getting something wrong and going back to fix it... more than once... I was finally able to upgrade my ejector to the "new style". Now my gun seems to run reliably with any kind of .22 ammo. Again, thank you for the video!
Great video. Thank you so much. I have been looking for days for a video on this. I have a 1977 mod. 60 that I had cleaned years ago and they failed to reinstall the 2 small e clips and when I pulled the receiver out it exploded. It came from together to apart in a mili second. Thanks to you I now have it back together. I wish I had the money I would buy you a new camera. Thanks again.
Carl Ray The e-clips can be purchased at most hardware stores, I can't remember the size but if you bring the part with you I'm sure they can help. I bought 10 of them since I have a habit of losing them and they are cheap.
I have not taken the side plates off but don't if the ammer spring came loose when I pulled or released the hammer. Can the hammer spring and the lifter spring be put back in place without removing the side plates or further disassembly? Thanks.
+Ellis Wallace Not the hammer spring, maybe the lifter spring. The only way these can come out is if the little clips on the pins that hold the two sides together are missing. I had that problem on one of mine.
Just got my glenfield 60 from pawn shop and decided to clean it. As soon as I got the 'lower' removed I somehow got the hammer spring off as well as the lifter spring out of 'set'. Any suggestions of how to fix without completely dissasembling? I wish you could have zoomed in your camera during your video. Yours is the only video I could find on the Glenfield like mine.
+Ellis Wallace The lifter spring can be a bear to get back in, one end goes in the small groove on top of the feed throat and works as the ejector. The other end goes around the lifter. The hammer spring is another issue, and shouldn't have come off unless the one of the side plates was off. I will be doing another video on this action since I have one that I got recently that I need to clean and I have a better camera now.
I will try at again but if need to will bring to a local gunsmith. I really like the feel of the rifle and will keep my eyes looking another one at the local pawn shops. is there any difference between a Glenfield 60 and a Marlin 60 of the same vintage?
Hello, I got this Glenfield mod. 60 after my son took it apart to replace the buffer. I have it all back together after watching your video and everything works the way it suppose to, but when I installed it back in the receiver and pull back on the bolt it seems the bolt won't go back fare enough to keep the hammer in the cocked position. I have rechecked everything and everything is in the right place. What did I do wrong, can you help. Thank you, Griz.
Might be a spring in backwards. Check the sear spring, when you have the action out you should be able to cock the hammer by hand and the sear should click into the notch on the hammer and hold it. If the problem is the bolt not going back far enough it could be a kinked recoil spring.
You're correct, it isn't very clear. The spring goes between the parts of the sear that go on the pin. I'll be doing a more detailed video of the model 60 action at some point but work is kinda crazy in the summer. the long tail goes over the short stud and the bent side is against the sear. the hooked part of the sear will go against the disconnector and if you push on the disconnector it should activate the sear. It's hard to explain, that's why I'm planning another video.
I forgot to thank you for the video! I received my glenfield 60 with these parts literally in pieces in a bag, and wouldn't have a clue how to put it together without this video! Thank you again!
Got a 1979 Glenfield and the feed throat is all marred up near the top .I'm wanting to replace with the Feed throat conversion upgrade kit . Is it compatible with the Carrier bolt or do i need to get a different carrier bolt.
I have a Marlin model 60 that I use for small game and it's been great but it is a bit older, before Marlin sold out to Remington but I don't think they have changed anything.
+joshua thompson Midway USA and Brownells list them, many places that deal with gun parts will have a recoil spring, I was able to get mine from my local gun shop. Very common part.
+Mr. Tolly (AKA: fatmantolly) Thanks! I dry fired it to make sure everything works the way it should, all that is left is to actually fire it. I'm quite confident that it will work

Thank you.

Without having it in my hands I'd have to say something isn't together correctly. I would suspect a sear spring possibly not installed correctly.
@@FatManLeather ,
Do you have a clear visual of what that would look like? If so, could you share it with me?
Thank you.
I have a picture that may help but I'd have to email it to you, email me at fatmantolly@gmail.com and I'll send it to you.
You are a life saver, I had to replace the buffer on my old Glenfield and this help a lot!
You are welcome, that's the whole reason that I do these videos.

+Douglas M Dalton I does matter, I thought I showed it. The side that is notched is to clear the disconnector mounted to the side rail.
+Mr. Tolly (AKA: fatmantolly) Thank you, I went back and watched it again. Now I understand that notch and the disconnector. I'll put it together and see what I get. Thanks for the video, couldn't have don't it with out it.

great vid. you make it look easy. you sound like John Goodman.
It really isn't that hard but I have done it several times too.
I've just done it after watching your vid. It helped thx. I think I could easily do it again

Should all work without replacing the bolt.
great job brother, very helpful
Thanks for watching my video and sharing.
Wats ur opinion on the new models? Jus subbed
I have a Marlin model 60 that I use for small game and it's been great but it is a bit older, before Marlin sold out to Remington but I don't think they have changed anything.
I need to buy a new recoil Spring but I can't find it for my girlfriend model 60 cal 22lr do you know where I can buy one

+joshua thompson Midway USA and Brownells list them, many places that deal with gun parts will have a recoil spring, I was able to get mine from my local gun shop. Very common part.
Since there are so few parts, how about a simple diagram naming them?
Numrich has a schematic.
does the 2 part throat come apart so that i can clean it?
Was up a creek without a paddle until this video came along
