The Marlin 70 Papoose Takedown 22LR is a semi-automatic rifle and has only had a few improvements made on it since the last model. This is because this rifle is already a great quality item as is. It has a sleek stainless steel barrel and has a self-loading take-down carbine. It has grooves on it so that you can mount a scope on it.

This rifle is one that breaks down into a barrel and a receiver, though this does require a barrel wrench to tighten it. While it does come with anall-weather nylon carrying case, this is not exactly a tactical weapon. This storage case is not able to carry much for extra ammo, but it is good enough to have it with you and store the rifle.

There is a bit of awkwardness when it comes to holding this rifle due to it not having a forearm grip. Much like other rifles of this sort, the trigger is quite stiff. If you are looking for more capacity options, the 70 Papoose does offer higher capacity options for their rifles. You can achieve around 50% accuracy at a range between 25 and 35 yards. This accuracy makes it a good choice for survival usage. Keep in mind when shooting this rifle that it may not fit in just the way you would hope on your shoulder.

When assembled, this rifle is about 35.25 inches long. When disassembled, its size is around 19 inches and the barrel is around 16.25 inches. It weighs around 3.25 pounds, which puts it at one of the lightest takedown rifles in the category. Here you can see a crossbolt safety and a single-stage trigger. This is a popular choice for first time gun owners. It is light enough without feeling weak and flimsy like you would see on other similar model rifles.

If you are someone who is a first time rifle owner, this is an option that you should definitely consider. It is a nice and light piece of equipment that is a lot tougher than it seems. This is one very accurate rifle that may only have a 7 round magazine, but it just enough to make it a practical semi-automatic rifle for your needs. This is not something that is necessarily very good for any long range shooting. There could be some adjustments that could easily be made so that this could be a more tactical weapon, but this is still a good rifle for a survival situation.

The Marlin 70 Papoose Takedown 22LR is a decently price model that is more affordable than some other options in its category. The retail price for the Marlin is around $290. You can easily find this model for around $250-$260. This price puts it at a great range for those looking for their first rifle or for those who are just looking for a good takedown rifle for survival purposes. There is a reason that this has been a top choice for first time rifle owners.
