My biggest caveat with the Model 60 has always been a lack of info on the workings. Way back before computers and smart phones I was taking things apart and the 60 was far more intimidating than the average bolt action or, cough, 10/22. Then again, I had a scant number of tools or mechanical aptitude, not that conditions have changed much. It could be argued that I was the fly in the ointment.
That was the reason why my Glenfield 60 ended up getting traded in part on my old 788. Took it apart when it started messing up and had a hard time putting it back together. The smith at my lgs told me it would cost more to fix than replace, but offered me a fair trade in on the 788, which I honestly needed more at the time.
