Friday Gun Pr0n #37

Here's an interesting rifle from the safe:


This is a Marlin model 989, a semi-automatic rifle chambered in the ubiquitous .22LR caliber. It's a magazine-fed rifle, with a 7 round magazine as the standard issue but with eeeevil "high capacity" magazines available (that's a 15 round magazine shown). A variant of this was designated the 989M2, and it was intended to be a knock-off of the M1 carbine, to which the styling can attest.

It's a fun little shooter, but hard to find parts for and a bear to take apart for cleaning, so it doesn't leave the safe very often...

That is all.
