No, the Marlin Model 80 bolt action rimfire rifles were a very common produced rifle during the mid 20th century.
The 16 1/4" Marlin 336 was called the "Marauder" in catalogs for 1963-64. That is the only two years they were offered. They are desireable guns, and somewhat rare. If in excellent condition they can bring bonus values of 25-30% over std. model carbines.
the Glenfield name used on the marlin rifle was for mass-merchandisers and chain stores that wanted brand name products to sell. this model you have was made by marlin from 1966-1970. marlin made two variations of this rifle, the change coming in 1969. it should have impressed checking on stock and forearm. As for the JM on the barrel, this is Marlin trade mark. 77,603 were built. these sold for around $100 when they were new. They are real nice rifles, I have a 30A 1st. variation that should look almost like yours except the magizine tube is full length. I wouldn't call it rare, its worth what ever you can get out of it. good solid rifles made by Marlin!
