The Marlin 983S is a bolt-action rimfire rifle designed for recreational shooting, target practice, and small-game hunting. Manufactured by Marlin Firearms, it is part of the company's line of traditional sporting rifles, known for practical designs, reliable performance, and ease of use. The Model 983S is chambered in .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (.22 WMR), a cartridge that offers greater velocity and energy than the common .22 Long Rifle. The rifle features a manually operated bolt-action mechanism, allowing the shooter to cycle cartridges individually through the action with each movement of the bolt. This design is valued for its straightforward operation and consistent performance. The 983S typically features a tubular magazine, which holds multiple cartridges and allows for repeated shooting without reloading after every shot. A notable feature of the Marlin 983S is its stainless-steel construction, which provides enhanced resistance to corrosion compared with conventional blued-steel finishes. It is generally fitted with a hardwood stock that offers a traditional appearance and a comfortable shoulder fit. Depending on the specific configuration, the rifle may include open sights and provisions for mounting a scope, giving owners flexibility when choosing their preferred sighting system. The Marlin 983S is suitable for shooters who appreciate the simplicity of a traditional bolt-action rimfire rifle. Its .22 WMR chambering makes it useful for small-game hunting and informal target shooting at appropriate distances. As with any firearm, accuracy depends on ammunition selection, rifle condition, and shooter technique. Overall, the Marlin 983S combines classic styling, practical features, and the versatility of the .22 WMR cartridge. It remains an appealing option for enthusiasts seeking a traditional rimfire rifle for recreational use and lawful hunting. Comes with a brown and black soft case NSS
