My favorite version of the model 60 is the Marlin model 99M1, but I would love to have the clip-fed, model 99M2. These are look-alikes inspired by the M1 Carbine. For the type of gun, these things have excellent 4-pound triggers, much better than the Ruger 10-22, and they are more accurate than the typical ruger 10-22. I have shot my friends new model 60 with a last-shot-bolt-open feature and it had a very squishy trigger and I was kind of wondering if it was due to the last-shot upgrade. If Marlin was to offer the 795 in a decent Walnut stock, I would most likely buy one. Better yet, they should just re-issue the 99M2.
