Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Marlin Model 57-M Levermatic is a distinctive lever-action rifle chambered in .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (WMR), produced by Marlin Firearms from 1959 to 1969. It stands out within the Levermatic series for its cam-and-roller system, which enables a notably smooth and rapid cycling action—an innovation licensed from Kessler Arms Company. Unlike traditional lever-actions, the Levermatic's design allows for a shorter and more fluid lever throw, enhancing the shooting experience. The Model 57-M features a 24-inch Micro-Groove barrel and a tubular magazine, with early models having aluminum receivers that transitioned to steel mid-production. With a production run of approximately 66,889 units, the 57-M was among the more popular Levermatic variants. Its combination of a powerful rimfire cartridge and a user-friendly action made it a favorite for small game hunting and varmint control during its era, while today they have become quite popular among collectors.
