Some asssistance from the firearms enthusiasts

rigcranop · 02-27-2007, 09:43 PM

Recently, a very close friend passed away and left me a rifle that was very special to him. His wife bought it for in '50 or '51, I believe. Can someone point me toward some reference information for that era? I would appreciate it.

I think so, I inherited a model 41 from my mom. She was hell on squirrels with that thing.
