Heads up. I recently bought a .22 Marlin 60 rifle with the tube feed. Had my grandsons out rabbit hunting one night. When we decided to call it quits I showed them how to remove the bullets from the tube, then, because I was aware of it from past experience I showed them there was not just one in the chamber, there was also one in the feeder. I cleared them both and was explaining to always assume a gun is loaded, even if you just emptied it. I pointed it away and pulled the trigger. As you can guess, there was even ANOTHER one in the tube which had cycled into battery. My point is to watch out for the Marlin 60 when unloading. P.S. the reason I didn't know the bolt had not locked back was because we were doing this in the dark under a small light and I was giving them more eye contact than the gun.
