another month and you'll be buying a brand new Remington for 40-50$
Agree Big Dog. Same around my area. The prices at Gun Shows are often crazy for that no longer made bolt action .22.Down here the last several yesrs, ANY good twentytwo rifle goes for $150 to $200, in pawnshops. The days of the fifty dollar twentytwo rifle are long over.

The newer 22 rifles are not made as well as the older ones is my thoughts. They are so mass produced and plastic. I am from the old school and like the wood stocks and heavy steel barrels. That is why the older rifles sell for high at gunshows and pawn shops. I find the older ones better made, accurate and more reliable then most of this new crap. I collect older 22 rifles in many makes and models.Down here the last several yesrs, ANY good twentytwo rifle goes for $150 to $200, in pawnshops.

PRICE. If they put $125 on it, it'd be gone with the wind.Stopped by the lgs that's selling the 25N yesterday. It's still there. Been there for a couple years now.
A new guy behind the counter said he's seen many guys pick it up, kick the tires and put it back. Gotta think there's something not right about the rifle if it's been there that long with so much interest.
Might have avoided a problem by passing on that particular rifle.
Yes.Can you put an accu trigger/profire trigger on a 25MN?
Yes.
Straight from Marlin.Where do you go to get the trigger group?
My dad bought me a 25n about 1980. Still have it, still shoot it and it’s probably the most accurate 22 that I have. I wish I could find a magazine that held more than 7, but I’ve put everything from 22 short ultra quiet to chi stingers and everything in between including what I consider some crap ammo and it always seem to shoot better than I can.
Mine is nothing to brag about in the accuracy department.Was offered a used Marlin 25 at a lgs today. Decent shape, no rust, smooth action. Comes with an inexpensive .22 cal. scope for $175.00.
I'm looking for a bolt action tack driver such as a CZ 455 or a used Anschutz.
The reviews seem positive and the price seems good, but I'm not quite convinced.
Anyone have experience with this model or its twin, the Glenfield 25? If it's as accurate as a CZ, it might be a good deal.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
