Have a guy who wants to get his grandfathers 22 up and running it’s an etonia .22 single shot bolt action so it’s a cooey of some sort it shoots and extracts just fine with nice bore has a nice stock it’s got a schnable type forend even. Now it needs a new rear site as the one on it is damaged and does not appear original. Now when I search etonia I get info for cooey ace rifles with receiver mounted sights and this rifle has a barrel mounted rear sights. This rifle does seem to be some type of boys type rifle as it feels and appears smaller that say a cooey model 39. I can get pics and send to a pro who can identify and then I can source sights for it as it’s a pretty cool looking little rifle
 
There are a few members here that have spare Cooey parts.
Maybe someone will help out.
The Ace, Rabbit, Ranger and Eatonia all ran a smaller rear in front of the bolt.

The Eatonia I have also has a fold-down peep behind the bolt.

Cool pics thanks for sharing the receiver markings says etonia .22lr and no provisions for any type of rear sights on receiver
 
I will get some pics tommorrow when I go to my friends I can email them if anyone can post em I have a crap of a time trying to post pics here from my smart phone. Oh and I spelled it wrong it’s Eatonia lol same markings as last rifle in your pics but no receiver mounted sites I thought cooey ace when I first seen it but then noticed no receiver mounted sights

Yours is a second generation eatonia. Mist of these gave a 20 inch barrel and use the old style dovetail barrel sights. Having said that you can find those on eBay for around $25.
