I was enjoying the nice weather today at the range. Another member showed up and showed me a rifle he inherited from his grandfather. I've never seen one like it before. It was a heavy barreled, bolt action .22lr. The bolt was different. It was spring loaded, like a semi auto. The rear sights were marked in 25 meter intervals, up to 200 meters.
He invited me to shoot it, which I took him up on. It shot very well.
He didn't know the model of it either. But he did have a story about his grandpa being shot at with this particular gun, but there is no way to verify it. He kinda wondered the value of it.
I told him I'd take a few pics and post it on here for some more info. I also invited him to browse INGO and consider becoming a member. He said he would look into it.
As soon as photobucket is back up and running, I'll post the pictures. Here is a stock photo for now.
What do you know about this rifle?
