Welcome to TFL !

It looks like a solid-frame (they were also made as a take-down) #4 roller, to me.

The wood's most likely issue wood that someone stripped & oil-finished, to bring out the fiddleback grain.

It's sure good-looking !

It should date from about 1902, since there were approx 356,000 made between 1890 & 1933.

They were chambered in .22 Short, .22 Long, .22 LR, .25 Stevens (aka "25-10"), .32 Short & .32 Long - all rimfire's.

Which one is your rifle chambered for ?


I had one in .32RF, which I converted the breechblock from RF to CF (no other mods), so I could shoot it using commercially-available (Winchester) .32 Short Colt.
