[dryfiregen4]

I just got this marlin model 60 from my uncle(was my grandfathers) anyways..i was taking it apart to clean it and was messing with the trigger assembly(which i should have just left alone) i these to springs popped out and im wondering if i need to take the whole trigger assembly apart to get these two springs in there correct spot?? Im not the best on working on rifles so forgive me.

Thanks for the help in advance..let me know if yall need more pics or info

Mercy mercy!

The coil spring is the hammer spring, Part #28.
You may be missing the hammer strut bridge, or it wouldn't have just 'fell out' in the first place! Part #30.

The hairpin spring is the very bent disconnector spring, Part #15.
And I don't know how that just 'fell out' either?

Looks like you might be missing the hammer strut since the spring is not in the gun. In the future, when you take it apart watch the strut piece. If you don't pay attention to it, or forget about it, the pressure from the hammer spring will make it fly across the room. Learned that one the hard way. There is a mod you can do which basically hooks the strut bar and spring assembly together so you can take it apart and put it together easier, but it is hard to explain without pictures.

You should be able to see how it goes together by the schematics, or by finding a video. The Model 60 action is a little complex-looking the first time, but if you completely disassemble it a time or two, it becomes really simple.

I learned real fast taking a Marlin #60 apart for cleaning, DON'T DO THAT AGAIN !!! .It took me hours to get it back together right .Now I just remove the stock and spray the action out good with cleaner, dry with compressed air and relube , good to go . hdbiker

Im not missing the hammer strut i just didnt put it in the picture.

I had to take apart the trigger assembly and BOY was it a pain in the rear..it took forever! just like hdbiker said lol but i finally got it back together. Im probably just gonna clean the bolt and everything else and just wipe down the trigger assembly from now on.

Im still having some problem with ejecting..the empty case gets jammed up above the next round trying to feed. any suggestions?

If using different ammunition does not cure the problem, you may need to replace the feed throat. The feed throat on the Marlin 60 is a zinc die cast piece in two parts, right and left. Over time, it is common for the feed throat to cause problems with feeding and ejecting.

Check your ejector, it's a spring wire that should be on the left hand side of the feed ramp.

Should the spring be flat on the feed throat..mine seems to be sticking up a little?
