Marlin 983 Ergonomics

The marlin 983 has a cock-on-open bolt with a handle that sits just forward of the trigger to allow for an easy transition.  Its safety is located along the right side of the receiver over the trigger and is easily reached by the thumb or trigger finger.  Its grip and forend are artistically checkered and don’t offer any added grip or control, though that’s not very important in a .22 caliber rifle.

Marlin 983 Mobility

The Marlin 983 measures 41 inches long and has an unloaded weight of 6 pounds.  This combined with its lack of protruding features makes it very easy to carry through thick woods when out squirrel hunting or plinking at soda cans in the back yard.

Marlin 983 Fit-N-Finish

The Marlin 983 has a stainless steel bolt and a polymer trigger guard.  Its stock is available in walnut or as a composite stock while all of its other steel components are blued to a somewhat glossy black finish.  Its receiver includes a ⅜ inch dovetail cut for mounting scopes and other optics.
