I posted this mystery rifle some time ago. I also posted the below text on Rimfire Central. No clue yet.

Manufacturer/Model: K1520 **only marking on rifle

Factory: ??

Barrel: K1520; 24"

Receiver & Sights: Leaf rear; bead front; no holes for peep; not drilled for scope; grooved for scope mounts; ribbed along top between grooves; flat metal receiver plug; gilled, 3 left (angled forward), none right; oblong opening for ejection port; no manual "hold open" feature (plugged)

Trigger mechanism: Long

Charging handle: Hollow, knurled

Lifter: Solid; coil spring

Stock: ?? Birch ??

Trigger guard: Stamped metal; inletted

Magazine: Tube; cartridge shaped port ** larger inside/outside diameter tube


It is pretty much a copy of the umpteen variations of the Savage/Stevens/Springfield "giller" .22 rifles. These rifles were also made in scads of different trade names.

** as an aside, a whole whack of info can be found at this site: http://www.hoosiergunworks.com/catalog/cross_reference.html

Made by Stevens for some store . it is a Model 87 "click -clack"..... trigger holds the bolt open until it is released and closing. Accurate to about 200 if you have a decent scope. I love mine.
 
Yep. I know that. I have approx. 10 different variations. What I'm after is the actual "brand" name. There are too many differences between this one and the others I have to call it a Stevens or a Savage or a Springfield. It certainly is a close "clone". I would like to find someone who has one like this, and/or someone who can tell me exactly what it is as far as the brand. The only marking I have found after close examination is K1520 on the barrel.
