Picked up a Model 67 Winchester

[Gene L]

In period correct shape..."used." Solid but showing its age. A single shot 22, one of the kind you have to cock by hand. The trigger is hard but not awful, just right for a kid back in the 1950s. I can usually shoot around a heavy trigger and so I shot it today illegally out my back door for a distance of 30 feet and it shot quite well, considering. I paid $125 for an aged gun and felt like I got a pretty good deal. It shot maybe a half inch low but that could be me. It's missing the elevator for the rear sight. No pictures today. It is a fairly early model with the gripping groove on the fore end. Bore is excellent.

I have it's sibling a 68
Is it an early one with the finger groove stock ?

I still maintain the 1900 / 67 is as good a monument to Browning's genius as the 1911 or his machineguns. Extraction, ejection, and sear - all one part, as I recall, all powered by one leaf spring.

THAT is one gun that has eluded me for years. I usually find them in such poor state that they are not worth salvaging or so expensive they are beyond my mental capacity to justify one. Good score!

The rifle is simple, which has been pointed out, is more difficult to make. It sold for less than five bucks back in the day and it's nothing "fine", just "good enough." My zero distance is about 15 yards, which I'll get to eventually, and that's about as far as my 81 year old eyes are good for. And good squirrel distance. I bought it because I wanted a ss shot rifle, took me back to my salad days. I need a sight elevator but I'm unwilling to pay the shipping price ($16) of gunparts suppliers for a $3 part.

The blue is unbad. Stock has been drilled under the pistol grip and about an inch back.
