HI all -
I just had to post about this. This model was mfd in 1931 and Discontinued in 1934. They did NOT have Serial Numbers back then for this brand AFAIK; and it does NOT have a 'letter suffix' like A or B, just the number. There's a good bit of info on these on RFC. I'm here in Eastern Canada where these 22LR are Very Rare, mostly only Stevens Shotguns around here. I've had WTB adverts on several forums for over 2-years and finally someone had one they wanted to sell. Only 200 miles away! HA! Thanks to a Dartmouth gunny !!
This is the model of rifle I learned to shoot with, over 60 years ago.
When the owner shipped it to me, it arrived under 22-hours later, via Canada Post !! I got it apart and washed the stock with Dawn, and a white cloth came off totally Brown! I've cleaned the action and the bore and hope to get out tomorrow, supposed to be ca 30C (85-90F) but LOW Wind, under 5mph.
Anyway, on to the pics -> a few more will follow someday . . .
