Maybe others with a 25 caliber Mod 53 will check their rifles!

  

Yes indeed… I would like to see photos of a few more Take Down Model 53 rifles in .25 caliber.

Only 101 rifles older than mine.  I am sure Bert would appreciate it, as would others on the forum.

At long last, finally a reply.  My 25-20 Model 53 is a late one.  Serial #995387.  25-20 T/D “STAINLESS STEEL” barrel.  It also lacks the slot allowing for accurate “DATE” identification.  RDB
