Show us the roll stamp on the barrel. Is it a 60, or a 75?
Being a 25xxxxxx number should make it a 1975 model, long tube, 18 rounds IIRC.

But I’ve never seen that collar on any Marlin model 60, and I’ve had a dozen, from the ‘70’s to the 2010’s.

I agree with ajole. I haven't owned near the number he has, but none of mine, nor any 60 I've seen have that type of band.

 

It doesn't have the last round hold open either!

 

I believe the LSHO was not a production item until the mid-80's.

 

The magazine tube may have been changed?

 

Looking for help! I recently got a Glenfield model 60 by Marlin and it was missing the inner magazine tube. I have no idea what year it is (serial # starts with 253, if that helps any) or if I'm even correct on it being the 18 shot.
Anyways, I've purchased and tried both the "New style" and the "Old style" tubes and neither one works! They won't seat in all the way and twist to lock in and hold closed.
The "j hook" looks to be on the inside of the outer tube (not visible on the outside of tube like all the other guns I've seen this model. I'm at a complete loss as to what to do now as these are the only 2 options I've been able to find for replacement tubes! Any help would be greatly appreciated???

Theres one for sale on Ebay with the same type outer tube. And returns accepted if its the wrong one it says

 

Awesome thank you very much!

 

Check out Numrich gun parts. I do not see the above # listed.

 

Its still on Ebay i just looked to make sure it says 36 of them availible item #402487351556

 

Looking at what our posters have provided, I'm guessing you have it right, and maybe my examples weren't old enough...so you better buy THAT exact tube that headrush posted, and fast.

I'm still half heartedly looking for a 75C stock, that doesn't cost more than the gun I bought with a shaved down stock.😫

 

Its hard to pay more now for parts than the original gun cost

 

I suppose we will have to wait for the OP to chime in again.

 

He posted this on the original thread. Doesn't say where he found one , which would be helpful.

Thank You Everyone for the help and information. Think I have found one"

 

I have two Glenfield model 60s, one is a 263XXXX serial, one a 233XXXX number. They have totally different front sights, barrel bands, and stock shapes although the same stock imprint. Can't see a lot in this old pic, I'll see if I can get some others tomorrow.

 

The top one in picture looks identical to mine. Do you know which magazine tube it is?

 

Now we're gettin' somewhere!

 

Thank You Everyone for all the help and information! And Thank you Headrush, I found that one on eBay and I do believe that's what I've been looking for.

 

I hope it does the job for you. We'll be waiting for range trip pictures. 😁
