lol. um... maybe you didn't see my sentence above the pics...
i just want to know who else has one of these somewhat rare? .22LR's. and if so, how have they been.
as for mine, thx; it's still kept in the original box. and yes, i love it. it belonged to my dad, and he probably hasn't even fired it. and NO, it's not for sale, sorry.

well, given that's the condition is excellent, i still have the original box, and it probably has only had a handful of rounds through it... i love it. so u have one?
i also have a nice Mossy 352k .22 LR which is great too. but it's semi-auto. (that's the original sling)

I've had one for over thirty years. Bought it new from Simpson's when I worked there as a kid. Shoots well, and absolutely the smoothest, slickest lever action I've ever handled, and that was true even before the untold thousands of rounds it has had through it. I have never had a problem of any kind that wasn't correctable by giving it a good cleaning. I love it and would never sell it. I only wish mine still looked as good as yours.
And, yes, you do see them up for sale from time to time, usually for less than $300. But so what? Yours is not only rare, it's one-of-a-kind....the one that your dad owned. Keep it forever.
