Most of the "little boys' rifles" I've seen in .22rf all seem to have an underlever which is called a "pigtail" style. Few have what Hopkins & Allen called "Full Loop" levers as on their No. 822.

How many other such rifles might there be out there that fit this description? NOTE this does NOT include those .22rf single-shots with the false tubular magazines below their barrel. I've only been able to obtain the two specimens below.

HOPKINS & ALLEN No. 822

The single shot Martini guns made up to look like lever action repeaters. Can't drag a model number or name to the top right now....

Ithica 49?
Pretty sure that's it.Tube, though. :)


There were some closed in loop levers available in the Stevens lineup, but on some of their different grades of target guns, rather than the run of the mill stuff.

Ballard made some closed loops as well.

trevj, I mentioned those little guys with fake mag tube as not counting. And yes, you're thinking of the Ithaca Mdl. 49. I just sold the originator of these types. It was the Agawam Mdl. 68. They sold the design to Ithaca and it was then known at their Mdl. 49. Savage built a heavier, better made steel version which they called their Mdl. 89.

The two in pic below WITH fake mag tubes are the Ithaca and the Savage. The others are the Hopkins & Allen No. 822 and the Savave Mdl. 89 I mentioned.

I can't help you out but I'm lusting after the H&A and Mossberg. Those are both fantastic!

I'm a single shot fanatic it seems.... :D This thread is giving me some more options to watch out for.
 
BCRider, we lived 18 years in BC back in the mid-'60s to mid-'80s, mostly on Vancouver Island. Oldest daughter still lives up in Zeballos.

Too bad our two countries can't have a better set of laws regarding collector weapons. I've got over a hundred to sell off. If you get a chance check the ones I've already listed on the GB auction website. My seller name there is Shansei45.
