    [Information from Marlin on this model firearm]
    The Marlin Firearms Co. has been in the .22 autoloader business since 1931. However, until 1959 none of the New Haven, Connecticut, firm’s semi-automatic .22s could be called a resounding success. That changed in 1959 with the introduction of the side-ejecting, blowback-operated Model 99. Designed by Marlin’s Ewald Nichol, the Model 99 employed a round 22” barrel and featured an 18-.22 LR-round-capacity tubular magazine mounted under its barrel. The top of the receiver was drilled and tapped for a scope base and sights were a hooded ramp front and an open rear. The Model 99, according to the late Col. William S. Brophy in Marlin Firearms, was offered only until 1961. The 99, however, served as the basis for an entire series of autoloaders that are still well represented in the company’s annual sales nearly 40 years later.

    The 99C was introduced in 1961 and differed from the 99 in that it employed Marlin’s then-new Micro-Groove rifling and had a gold-tone trigger blade. The 99C had its receiver grooved for tip-off scope mounts in 1964. Initially supplied with an un-checkered walnut stock, the 99C had impressed checkering added in 1971, and the checkering pattern was changed again at least twice more before the rifle was discontinued in 1978.
