Eaton's TruLine Model 10 .22

Hate to be one of those kinda guys...but a picture, or pictures would be helpful. If you've handled it, I'm guessing it wasn't for a photo shoot though.
They are bolt repeaters using a box magazine (I have seen one ), and if pushed I'd suggest Savage(lakefield) whipped it up.

No joys yet, but still snooping. Did find one reference on rimfirecentral, but the thread is from 2005, and pics are gone.
Did come across this, although of no use to OP, it's still nifty:

Another from '75

Eatons catalogues can be reviewed, and you should find the Truline in one of 'em.

It's conditional. If you do find your answer post it.
You handled it, didn't take a picture, and you don't even tell us if it is a bolt action, semi, pump, etc, or repeater or not?
It was made by Find Out Yourself.
Sometimes, as in this case, there are circumstances that don't allow for taking pictures. Sorry to have bothered anyone with the question.
Thanks to the people who tried to help out.
^ I might be a whole lot of wrong ^...Any Chance it was a NAACO #10 single shot, made in Toronto? (I'm sure I recall a box mag though)
Looks like a NAACO 10 (but waaaay old!). The safety goes all the way under the bolt, and flat end on bolt.

EDIT: If you're going through Eatons catalogues, 50's-60's might be decades to find it in.

Okay. The matter is settled. It is a NAACO Model 10. I just checked the leftovers from the chop job. The butt plate does not have NAACO stamped on it, but it is blank in the circle. All the rest matches. Simple as that.
I hope whoever authorized to have that rifle chopped up is proud of themselves. One of the scarcest Canadian built firearms has been destroyed. "Another gun off the street". I rescued a box of chopped up guns that a guy was going to melt down and make swords for karate practice or some such thing. Luckily, the bolt wasn't touched and I was able to give it to a fellow CGNer who needed it to bring a family heirloom back to life.
