I just picked up a small single shot .22 with "J G Anschutz GmbH ULM D/Germany" stamped on the barrel. There is a proof mark that looks like an eagle with an "N" under it in two places, one on the barrel, and one on the receiver. Does anyone have any info on this rifle? TIA,KD
 
I have similar markings on both my CIL/Anschutz 180 and 190. Anschutz made a lot of different models that were single shots. In this case a picture would sure help so is there any chance of posting one? RimfireCentral has a Anschutz section on the forums so you can even ask on there too.
 
The left side of the barrel just in front of the receiver, there will 2 small numbers followed by a symbol that look like an antler. The two small numbers will tell you what year it was made.

Not always though. Looking at my CIL/Anschutz 180 and 310 I found that to be the case (66) but my CIL/Anschutz 190 has no such marking that I can locate. Neither does my Woodchucker which appears to have a number that says ID
 
This rifle was made in Ulm D,Germany. The stamping at the top of the barrel, in front of the rear sight, reads,"J.G. Anschutz GmbH Waffenfabric Ulm/D. Germany",
on the left side in front of the receiver it says, "Cal. 22 long rifle". On the top of the receiver in front of the bolt opening is the "Anschutz crest". There is no indication of date of manufacture, other than the serial number which is 209###. The stock appears to be stained beech, the butt has grooves cut into the wood horizontally, rather than a butt plate. KD
 
Heavy or standard barrel weight? Peep sights or ramp sights? Barrel length is...?

I still say you should try to post a pic of it.

My woodchucker is a repeater and is probably a shortened Anschutz model 1440 and like yours the butt has grooves cut into the wood horizontally and no butt plate.

It has a standard barrel of 21.5 in. length, and ramp rear sight, also the "odd extractor" that Slash5 spoke of. The crown is set in like a bowl depression at the muzzel. It seems to have a two stage trigger. I can't tell how well it shoots, because I had some difficulty with the firing pin. It seems better since I shimmed it . No pics until the wife gets back from visiting with the out-laws.KD

I wonder if there's a chance it's a CIL/Anschutz 167?

From my archives:
Anschutz 1360

Notes: This design was abandoned in the early 1980s. It is based on the primitive Flobert I action, and was regarded as the lowest-quality Anschutz rifle – which made it better than most equivalent rifles, but not up to normal Anschutz quality. The base Model 1360 rifle could fire virtually any sort of .22 rimfire ammunition, from the tiny BB Caps to .22 Long Rifle. The Model 1363 could fire only .22 Long Rifle, but had improved leaf rear sights, a rounded pistol grip, and an adjustable trigger. The Model 1365 is chambered for the odd 9mm Flobert shotshell ammunition.

Anschutz 1380

Notes: This is little more than an improved 1360, using the slightly-improved (but still primitive) Flobert II action. The basic 1380 could, as the 1360, fire anything from BB Caps to .22 Long Rifle rounds. The 1386 is similar, but came with a 4x15 telescopic sight as standard. The Model 1386 Z was a rather odd version; it was designed for firing indoors and at events such as carnivals and suchlike, and fired a very low-power cartridge known as the 4mm Ubungsmunition. The model 1388 was also similar to the 1380, but used a low Monte Carlo comb and a spring leaf rear sight, and had a shorter barrel.

Slash,

I have a CIL 180, pics are attached. It is a good quality rifle and not the one that you refer to above. It has the same action as my 1416. Not sure how you connect the CIL 180 to the 1360/1380?

I've got a 180 as well.
As far as I know, both the 180 and 190 are the Anschutz 64 actions. I've seen comments that CIL had Anschutz make some modifications to reduce the price - a less expensive trigger assembly than the same Anschutz models. Don't know how true.

I've got one of these Anschutz youth guns as well.
It came with a Weaver side mount and a really cloudy 4X, 3/4 inch, steel tube scope.
Shot pretty good, was able to shoot marshmallows at 50 yards. Needed a better scope.
Picked up a good clear 6X Weaver steel tube scope at a gun show. Nice older scope, matched the gun nicely (but paid almost as much as I paid for the gun).

Boy, what a shooter. Really likes cheap target ammo - Lapua and Eley club both shot well with Eley the best.
Had a ball with it. A little windy but still had a one hole (ragged) 25 yard group about .25, and less than 3/4" at 50 yards (one was .53, one was .30 until a flyer opened it up to an inch). With a more powerful scope I'm sure would shoot even better - right up with my most accurate guns. Dynapoints were not bad at .96 at 50 yards.

The ejector is a pain - you have to slide it forward with a finger every shot before you put the cartridge in. It does eject - barely - if you work the bolt briskly.
 
I have a C-I-L model 111,bought in 1965. It has the sliding half moon extractor/ejector, is equipped with a buttplate, and cocks on closing. The lockworks are extremely simple (verging on "cheap") but it is surprisingly accurate. My rifle, a gift for my 12th birthday, cost $17.75 vs $17.25 for the Cooey singleshot.
 
Here's a pic,

Accept for the extractor system, and the weight,(it's lighter) it doesn't seem much different than my Cooey 39.
I haven't had time to take it to the range since I fixed the firing pin issue, so don't know how accurate it is.
Thanks for all the replies,KD
