Does anyone have info on Marlin Model 56 Levermatic? I think they were made from 1955 to 1964 in several versions but mine has a "heavy barrel" and don't know if it was stock or added later??? Thanks, Bernie

I've had several 56 & 57 Marlin's over the years in 22lr & 22 magnum. I don't recall ever seeing one with a heavy barrel.
Is the barrel stamped with the factory JM lettering on it, or does it just have the chambering stamped on it? If it is the later, it isn't a factory barrel.

I haven’t seen one in years…….any chance of posting some pictures?
