CLOSED The Marlin Papoose that fell behind your safe in the 80s

Yes, I actually want one of the goofy looking, free from any form of hand guard, 22lr Marlin Autoloaders.

Liberals love these things and I can get it out of your house before somebody actually see's that you actually bought one. Let me save all the guns it is banging against causing scratches and dents by getting it out of your way. I don't care about the stock or the cosmetics as long as it shoots as true as it did when you swore you would never go to a another gun show drunk.

I can convert it to cash!

*ETA: "fell"

I sold mine because it was very muzzle light and with no forearm stock, I didn't shoot it very well. I bought the rifle to take in my pack on my next dirt bike trip to New Mexico. It turned out that I never made a second trip. It's a very unique rifle!

Good luck in your quest.

I come here & learn stuff. Had never heard of a Papoose. AR7 knockoff?

Nope, its a ringer for the Marlin mod 60 22 LR but the barrel is SS, there is a big nut that can be removed and the barrel can be removed for carrying. It has no forearm stock. It comes in a nice pouch.

It's SS on the barrel but as I remember, the receiver is just painted silver.

Turned one down in the late 80s. Guy offered it to me for $30. His grandfather died, and he afraid to shoot it since it didn't have a stock. Sadly, with a house full of kids and a crappy job, I didn't have the $30.

Found one in Conroe this morning. Dropped it at Ranger Point Precision this afternoon.
