Marlin Model 56 Levermatic in 22 rimfire

Post by prostreet »

Hello,

I'm a new member to the site and I was looking for some information about a Marlin Model 56 Levermatic in 22 rimfire. I believe that the shoulder stock is supposed to have a "bullseye" button on the underside-mine is missing. Is there a source for an original or reproduction replacement? Also, this rifle hasn't been drilled for front or rear iron sight attachment points as there are no threaded holes present. There is a Weatherby scope mounted on the rifle though. Was it an option to have the iron sights factory installed or not in anticipation of installing a scope? How can it be determined when the rifle was produced? It does have an aluminum receiver. Thank you.
