This rifle was bought new by my father in 1956 at a country store in Everett , Pa.
It has many squirrels and rabbits to Its credit. Wish I had a dime for every round i shot out of it. Still doing it’s job perfectly at almost 70!

Here is another I “rescued” from the “Needs Minor Repair” rack at my LGS (Large chip in stock at the upper tang):
Serial #36752 (1938)
Round Barrel
”—.22 S. L. OR L.R.—“
Top Tang w/two screw holes
NO “W” below serial #
Checkered Steel Buttplate
NO grooves on receiver for scope
Flat Muzzle Face
NO magazine collar
I’ll add . . . .
It has the early, SHORT, Flat-bottom, 11-ring pump handle.

The large chip missing from the stock appears to be a problem that is fairly common on Model 61’s . I have seen it many times. The muzzle on yours should be cut perfectly flat.
