Can someone please help me date a rifle left to me by my grandfather? I’ve attached a few pictures. I need to clean it up and I’ll add some more. Appreciate any help you can provide! Thanks!

Sorry she got all rust freckled up like that but very cool to have a keepsake from your grandfather. Lots of ways to clean it up a little but if you’re unsure or unable, seek out someone who can professionally do it!
