WINCHESTER Model 74 .22 Caliber Semi-Automatic---22" barrel--overall length 42"---tube magazine in stock--1939-1955,
they came in a version also that fired shorts only.
a friend had some rifles in his attic that needed cleaning, and i volunteered! this is one of the rifle types he had. others were non-22 so they didn't interest me much ;)
after cleaning her up and getting the dust-rust off, i had to go shoot some pine cones off the trees..with the small bead front sights, and smooth little trigger....this ol gal was a blast to shoot!
time came last night when i had to give her up again....but i told him if he ever wanted to part with her....;)

i you see one in a pawn shop for $125.....you won't regret getting it!

*pic borrowed as i didn't have time to get her pic*
