Lots of old ranger models made by different manf. I suspect its a model made by Cooey for Eatons. That stamp indicates pre WWII. Picture will tell the tail-----Cowboy

Cooey model 75.

Its a Cooey all right, a model 75 type made for Eatons. The hump fore stock is the later type. Check the screw that holds the rear sight. If its flat slot its early model if its phillips its a late model. True piece of Canadian history------Cowboy

It has a flat-slotted screw for the rear sight. What would have been the date of manufacture? 1940's?? thanks for the info cowboy.

I got the exact same one, not a rare 22. Handed down from my late Grandfather and soon to be shoot by the fourth generation. I think it is a great gun to learn the basics on. I just wish it still had the orginal rear sight ramp like yours.

I bet you can't shoot your wallet dry with it
