What? what are you talking about?
My Cooey is my favorite rifle i've ever owned... Some people look @ my scope and find it way way too high, but i love it where it's at... I prefer it high on the Cooey, but not this high on any other firearm I own... I know the scope is overkill for the old girl, but i had it laying in my gunsafe without a home, so it just had to go on the Cooey. No matter where i go to shoot, the Cooey 64B always come with.. I always have a big grin on my face whenever I grab it. I'm planning a full resto on my old single shot Cooey model 39, pics to come soon.. Anyways... just thought i'd share some pics of my most cherished rifle.
Nice rifle Jackrabbit

Haven't seen one of these in this collection so far.
FEBIGER ARMS CO. New Orleans, LA, .22rf pump-action.
One of the most interesting and unusual pump actions in the world. Mine is unmarked except for caliber, serial number is just under 7000, ca1909-1911. Various models are found with NO company name, only the caliber stamped into top of barrel as mine is. Others have full name, address, patent info, etc., stamped into side of receiver.
Great looking wood on this old fellow.
These were originally offered in several variations INCLUDING one which could be fired either pump-action OR semi-auto. And, remember this was when the WW I guys in the trench still didn't have semi-autos!!!
Last, and only, time it was offered was in the 1911 Baker Gun & Forging Co. catalog, calling it their Batavia Repeating Rifle.
Fascinating history on these old guys.

VERY.
That letter from Savage ended the Batavia Repeating Rifle offers. Baker had over $80,000 invested when Febiger gave up. Baker tried to salvage some of their investment using the parts inventory (about 125 rifles) only to get hit by Savage's threat. No more Febiger OR Batavia guns!
Glad I got one of them however....
