Vintage .22 Rimfire.....1936 (oops..1935)
Stumbled upon this rare find at the last gun show. A nearly new in box "Lyman Super Target Spot" scope (20X). A perfect match for an equally vintage (1936) Winchester 52B Bull barrel target rifle. In it's day this was the ultimate .22 rimfire combination. Rare finds often come at a premium price....paid more for the scope than I did for the rifle, but it was worth it.
The final piece of the kit will be this Vintage thumbhole ISU Olympic stock complete with "Al Freeland" hardware and accesssories. The complete rifle, both stocks, and scope are to rimfire rifles what a Mercedes Gull Wing is to sports cars.
