Marlin Model 70PSS
"The Papoose" - Stainless Steel survival rifle in a floating case.
|
|
The Marlin Model 70PSS is designed to
be an easily carried, quick takedown .22 rifle. These
features along with the stainless steel and polycarbonate
construction made it a fine choice for a survival rifle.
The barrel is quickly attached and removed with either the
included spanner wrench or a coin. The 7-round magazine
is nicely finished in nickel plating. The Papoose
comes with a floatable padded nylon cordura bag.
The reciever cover is grooved for a scope mount, which
could also fit inside the padded case (along with
ammo) if you choose to use it to carry the gun.
carrying strap studs are included on forend and buttstock of
the rifle. Safety is a standard crossbolt and sights are
adjustable open rear, and ramp front orange post with a
wide view hood. |
A manual
bolt hold-open lever is located on
the right side, forward of the trigger
guard, the hold-open also functions automatically when the last round is
ejected. Marlin recommends using CCI Mini-Mag, Federal / Remington / or
Winchester super X, high velocity. Although the rifle
comes with the carry case, Marlin does not
recommend storing the papoose in the case
for extended periods in case
moisture condenses on the inside and causes
rust. Not only a nice survival rifle, but
a nice little plinker to boot.
