Stevens 417 1/2 ?

[Awsomepossum]

Hey Everyone,

I recently picked up a Stevens 417 1/2 to my knowledge. Can anyone confirm the model ? Also it's chambered in 22 hornet which is overpowered for the gun. The stampings look to me like a rebarrel. How rare is the closed lever ? I'm completely new to these Stevens but really like it. Can anyone help me out with some knowledge ? Serial is 56x

Looks to have had a Vernier type ladder sight mounted to the tang, a fun target rifle in it's day. The first one I've seen.
