Glenfield was an affordable firearms brand created by Marlin in the 1960s to appeal to budget-conscious hunters and large retail chains. These rifles were based on Marlin’s designs but typically featured more economical stocks and were sold through stores like Sears and J.C. Penney. By 1983, the Glenfield name was phased out and replaced by the Marlin brand. They were popular among both recreational shooters and hunters. These rifles were very popular, and today Ruger is bringing them back.
Glenfield Firearms Model A – Ruger Brings The Classic Back to Life
Sturm, Ruger & Company has announced the reintroduction of the Glenfield Firearms brand. Glenfield returns with the launch of the new Glenfield Model A bolt-action rifle. Proudly American-made, the Model A was crafted to make hunting accessible to everyone – whether you’re just starting or adding to your collection.
Highly inspired by the Ruger American Rifle Gen I, the Model A carries forward that same practical, no-nonsense spirit. After nearly 14 years and almost two million Gen I models produced, the original developed a devoted following, and the Model A honors that legacy by carrying forward the most valued elements of the Gen I. Priced at an MSRP $100 below comparable Gen I models, the Model A delivers trusted performance with even greater value.
