Marlin Glenfield Mod 75 Problem

I had one of those many years ago. I seem to remember the
bolt "lever" can be pushed into the bolt to lock the bolt in the
rear position. (lock it open) I never tried it; but I wonder if
it could be pushed inward with the bolt closed. Try pulling the
lever or handle out to see if this frees the bolt.

above dude is right, the bolt handle is proly pushed in. pull out on it, then pull it back. That is how you lock this bolt open; push in, when you have it the bolt pulled back.

don't know, could be the ejector wire, somehow stuck under it, could be a broken guide rod. Time to start taking it apart.

Possibly a shattered recoil buffer jamming the internals with bits and pieces. Take it apart. They're easy to work on and all parts can be had at Numrich.

Looks like the rifle graveyard is the next stop.

Toss it my way...I don't rightly know what's wrong, but just don't be pissed if I fix it. PM for address, shipping is on me.

I've gotta ask - did you check to be sure there is no cartridge in the chamber ? If you can't see the mouth of the chamber because of the bolt being stuck forward, you can carefully insert a cleaning rod from the muzzle and see where it bottoms out.

Once confirmed that there is no live round in the chamber. Before scraping the rifle, I would use a flat headed screwdriver to pry the bolt back away from the chamber.

I know Mav was there first, but if you're going to get rid of it, I've got one that needs parts. I could sure use a second. I'd also pay shipping.

Tap the bolt back with a rubber mallet till it loosens up.

I also have one of these and I had some MAJOR feed issues with it when it was first passed down to me. But a little work and it is now my favorite .22lr. DONT toss this gun. But of course if you really want to I am sure any of the guys in this thread would not mind it.

Certainly tap it back with a rubber mallet. If you don't feel comfortable with that or it does not work then I am sure most gun smiths have worked on about a billion of these guns so a good gun smith might have an easy fix.
