Hello Daniel,
Can you provide clear close-up pictures of the various parts of the rifle?

Easiest way is to register so you can do it directly or email them to a member so they can be posted.

Hello,I purchased the Model 56 serial number 510, what would like to know about it?
Daniel
Hi Daniel, thanks for posting!
Is your rifle chambered for .22 Short or .22 Long Rifle?
Does it have a receiver mounted peep sight or just the barrel mounted open sight?
Best Regards,

Hello,
The rifle is chambered in 22 Long rifle and has the Lyman 42 rear sight. I have forwarded pictures for a member to post. Hopeful this will be helpful.
Thank you, I have learned a lot from this forum.

Great looking Model 56! I saw that one sell last month on Gunbroker and it was a deal in my opinion.
Thanks again for sharing.

Hi,
Here a few new pictures of my Model 56.
Hope everyone is having a great day.
Daniel
Thank you very much for the photos, that is a great looking Model 56. It is already in the survey as it was formerly owned by another WACA member. I am glad it found a good home.

A question if I might, would you like information of rifles when I come across or see them on gun actions? Example, there is currently a very nice M56 #11629 with a Lyman 42 rear sight. Just let me know.
Thanks,
Daniel

Yes, please post any that you happen to find. Is serial number 11639 a 22 Short, or a 22 Long Rifle?
WACA Historian & Board of Director Member #6571L
Yes, #11629 is a Long Rifle with a Lyman 42W rear sight on GunBroker.
#22578 M57 Long Rifle, Lyman rear sight
#3906 M56 Long Rifle, standard rear sight
#5620 M56 Long Rifle, standard rear sight
Thank you! Those are all new additions to the survey.
Are you sure about the serial number of 22578? I saw serial # 22758 on Gunbroker.

2758 is correct, I will double check my numbers twice before posting. Data is only as good as the input.
Thanks
Daniel
