I own a glenfield 778 without the magazine plug it can hold a maximum of 6 rounds on in the chamber and 5 in the magazine
$200
Marlin started producing the 778 in 1979, production ended in 1984
I am not 100 % sure, but the research I have done indicates that they were produced from 1978-1984, with 1984 being the last year of production. The Marlin Model 120 is the continuation of the Glenfield 778 with some parts being interchangable.
yes and they sell rifled slugs that shoot better
you can find them here... http://www.e-gunparts.com/productschem.asp?chrMasterModel=082Zz778
It has value as a shooter only - not a collector piece. $100-$200.
In good working condition $150 to $200
To break down a Glenfield Model 778, first ensure the firearm is unloaded. Next, remove the magazine and pull the bolt back to check the chamber for any remaining cartridges. Then, locate the takedown screw or latch, typically found on the underside of the receiver, and loosen or disengage it. Finally, slide the barrel and receiver apart, separating the components for cleaning or maintenance. Always refer to the manufacturer's manual for specific instructions and safety precautions.
That model has been obsolete since 1982. You might find a scanned copy available on one of the gun auction sites or eBay.
To remove the buttstock from a Glenfield Model 778, first ensure the firearm is unloaded and safe to handle. Locate and unscrew the screws that attach the buttstock to the receiver, typically found at the rear of the receiver and possibly on the underside. Once the screws are removed, gently pull the buttstock away from the receiver, being cautious not to damage any surrounding components. If the stock is stubborn, check for any additional screws or clips that may need to be released.
