Looky what I found

Good deal with box and papers!

I would have been pushing people out of the way for that, good find!

Nice, hopefully it operates better than my Charter Arms version. If you look up jam-o-matic in the dictionary, it shows a picture of my rifle.

Great find ,enjoy it and be well

That’s awesome!

Very nice op

What a neat find............. Complete with box & papers. I've never seen one of those in person and have only seen a few of the Charter Arms models. Although I did purchase a barely used 3 or 4 year old Henry model with box and papers in early 2016 at a show. That one cost me about 258 bucks with tax. I would have jumped on that Armalite immediately if I had come across it. IIRC the Armalites were pretty trouble free and it was the Charter Arms ones that had some "issues"? Buddy of mine had a Charter Arms model years ago and it was a bit of a hassle sometimes but not always. I've heard that Henry worked some of the "bugs" out of that design. If anything, you now have a neat little rifle that was the pioneer of all the AR-7 rifles that have come along since.

Cool find.

Neat little rifle! A buddy of mine has one of the henrys, and that gun seems pretty reliable, couple jams every 100-200rnds with cheap ammo.

These guns have always screamed shortened, and shrouded barrel at me for some reason.

That is very cool! Reminds me of the one used in the James Bond movie "From Russia with Love".

That's pretty slick. I've a hard time paying more than $150 for a rimfire but that's a pretty good buy.

Looks perty!

Try getting some new magazines for it. The feed ramp is integral in the mag, usually the culprit.

I have owned one of those Charter Arms AR-7s for................I don't know........20 years, 25 years ??
I used to carry it in my vehicle all the time and since I always had it with me, I seemed to shoot it quite a bit. And it worked great. After years of use, it started to have a lot of malfunctions. I bought a new magazine and the problem was solved.

I had actually forgotten I even owned one until I saw this thread. After I got home from work, I went through some boxes of stuff from the last time I moved and there it was. The stock is pretty dinged up, but, mine was never a safe queen. I think it also has some automotive undercoating on the stock from riding in a trunk for years. I will have to take it out and see if it still works.

I would have been all over that Armalite for that price. Good find.

Wow. AND it came with the extra stock - perfect! Darn good find.

Congratulations.

My wife would be jealous.

That has been on my list for many years.

My very first rifle as a kid. Taught me how to clear jams......

Definitely a nice find and a smart move to snag it. I still cannot get my head around the idea that nice rimfires sell used for a song compared to their larger bore brethren but then as a buyer I'm not complaining!

That a good fine you made.

VERY cool! I've always wanted a red stock one.
