Hey guys, I am 14 and I'm getting a job working at subway making about 70 dollars a paycheck so I was going to save up to buy a new .22 LR. Between the two guns which would you choose.
MARLIN MODLE: $150.00
HENRY LEVER 22: $250.00 |

| Both will do the same thing so I went with the model 60. The price difference gives you a $100 head start on your next firearm. :thumbsup1: Check out the gun shops as well. There are a lot of excellent used 22s out there that will save you even more money. |

| I'd get the model 60 also. I'd use the extra $100 to buy ammo. |

I have a Model 60 that I bought when I was a teen so I guess I'm biased.
Anyway, like the others said, the Marlin will give you $100 to buy ammo with.
Get a good cleaning kit too. Hoppes makes a nice starter kit. |

| Either should be fun. You might consider the Ruger 10/22 as well. |
