Decent garage sale find today

I had totally forgotten about the Glenfields. I bought maybe a dozen or more of those in the early 70s. Kmart would put them on sale for $27.99 over a weekend and then they would go back up on Monday to $34.99. I sold all of them for $33 or more. That $5 would fill my gas tank for a week. They sold a model with a scope for $39.99 on sale. Bricks of Winchester 22 were $4.99 - I still have a couple of old boxes.
Your wood looks great. The bluing has held up pretty good. How is the barrel? Maybe cork-up both ends and fill it with Kroil and let it set for a week (in the garage- that stuff smells). Congrats on the find.

Cheers

The bore is pristine. I did find a period 3/4" Marlin scope to go on it, but the optics are less than stellar. Probably disassemble the scope and clean the lenses, when I have time for it this Winter.
