[Ended] Vinnies eye surgery #2: Marlin Model 15YN .22lr

Postby FJ540 on Wed Jun 06, 2018 4:25 pm

Per situation outlined in post: viewtopic.php?f=64&t=59811

We have a lovely Marlin 15YN (youth) .22lr and .22 short Single shot rifle up for auction to the highest bidder.

This gun was purchased for my step-son, but he never took a shine to it and hasn't ever fired it so it never acquired any sentimental value to him. I happen to love this thing as it's got the micro groove barrel and drives tacks! Many a Commie treerat (sorry Bob) aka: red/pine squirrel, and chipmunks have lost their lives to this gun. I will be sad to see it go, but Vinnie's vision is far more important to me; besides it's not like I don't have other .22lr options. Time to let someone else nurture the shooting sports with their youngster(s) with it, or keep it for themselves. :lol:

It has the adjustable sights, and also has Marlin's goofy dovetail scope mounting grooves. This is not standard Weaver or Picatinny - just a heads up if you're thinking of making a highly portable rodent sniper rifle. Stock is Birch as best I can tell, and this is a fine example of a well-made "not walnut" piece of furniture. It does have some scuffs, but nothing glaring; it's not new but certainly nowhere near truck gun beater status.

Located in Fridley but again willing to meet within reason, will need to see a DL and will complete bill of sale if buyer needs one. No felons, etc.

Lexi's still getting used to him, but I think she misses unhindered access to my lap since he's usually hogging it. :mrgreen:

This auction has a reserve of $100 (I paid $130). Ends 6-12-18 at 23:59hrs.

GREAT RIFLE - I have one and both my children started with it, and its more accurate than my Ruger 10/22.
