Model 60 is only $140? Marlin 60 is a damned fine 22LR rifle. I have a really old tube fed Remmington. I don't know why people shy away from a tube fed semi autos but they are pretty great in practice.

I don't have a Marlin semi-auto, but most of the folks I know who have them really like them. As far as tube fed 22's, I don't have a problem w/ them. In fact, tube fed has one advantage over rotary mag guns if one's shooting rounds that have a shorter over all length than the usual 22LR. The rotary mags in my 10/22's and 77/22 will NOT feed 22 shorts, longs, etc, but they usually WILL feed in a tube fed gun (except in a semi-auto as the round may not produce enough energy to cycle the action).
