Marlin Firearms Glenfield Model 15

The Marlin Glenfield Model 15 was a redesigned Marlin Model 100. It differs from the Model 100 in a few details. The stock was made in the Monte Carlo style instead of pistol grip, but it was still made from walnut. A ramp front sight replaced the old bead sight. The barrel was 2 inches shorter - 22" instead of 24" and the receiver was grooved for tip-off style scope rings. A thumb safety with a red cocking indicator was installed along with a redesigned extractor on the bolt. The Glenfield brand of guns was made by Marlin in the late 1950's in order to provide large retail stores of that time as SEARS, Walmart, TG&Y, Western Auto, K-Mart with cheaper versions of Marlin guns. Big retail stores demanded cheaper guns from manufacturers. Marlin made cheaper versions of it's standard models and delivered them under the Glenfield brand as not to compete with it's own Marlin guns in the little gun shops accros America. To be able to offer Glenfield guns at a lower price, Marlin used many small cost-saving measures on these guns. A cheaper stock wood, no checkering, fixed sights instead of adjustable sights and other cost-saving techniques were used. Parts of Glenfield and Marlin guns are almost universally interchangeable.
