Just found one of these while cleaning my basement... looking for info and found your video. Good timing! Was inherited and now I am going clean it and see what I can do with it.

I have one that was my dad's and I could drive a nail from 25 to 30 yards. You say it's ot worth much but to .e it's more valuable than my hunting rifle. Thank you for this video

I have a Steven’s model 15. Looks like the same rifle but without the magazine tube, single shot. The family story is my father got it at Montgomery Wards in 1939. For the astronomical price of $3.00!

I really like those old Stevens. I have one or two that I still haven't done videos on, yet. Thanks for watching!

That rifle looks damn good for 90 years old, a testament to how well it was treated. I wouldn't restore it. One of the reasons that I collect vintage .22s is that honest old patina.

There were lots of them made back in the day. Many of them sold in the local hardware store or even ordered through the Sears catalog and shipped to the house. I've heard lots of stories about cleaning out granddads house after he passed and now someone has an old rifle they know nothing about. Those old rifles had character and were works of real craftsmanship. I'd like to see them all survive and be passed down to the next generation. (or to me!, Lol) I hope you can get out and enjoy yours from time to time. Thanks for watching!

In 1971 this was the first rifle I ever fired. I was 6. Grand dad loved to take me out plinking. I got the rifle after he died. This week I took “the works” off of the stock and refinished the stock with a darker stain. I did clean the action but I didn’t remove any pins. I was afraid of springs going flying. The only thing that bugs me about this Rifle is the safety. If the safety is on and the tigger is pulled and then the safety is disengaged? The rifle will go off without anything touching the tigger. I will always assume that this rifle doesn’t have a safety. I suppose the ring that is the safety, that traps the tigger could be removed?

I hope you get to pass it on to someone, someday. Those family heirlooms can bring back some really good memories. There were several older firearms that had the same issue. I'm not sure what you could do to prevent that from happening but being aware of it is a step in the right direction. Thanks for watching!

Nice to see the other choices my Grandfather had when he choose A Remington M34. I think the design is neat, but also that he chose right. Funny thing is there is a lot of literature on the Remington M34 that claim it was the ONLY 22 tube fed bolt action that fed Shorts, Long, and Long Rifle.

There were a lot of different choices back in the day. I'd love to have one of each! I'm not familiar with the M34, but with a little luck, I might be some day! Thanks for watching!

I had a great uncle that owned a Winchester 72 bolt action 22LR. Tube fed,no serial number and made around the mid 50's to early 60's. It was the first rifle I ever shot.

With my luck, I'd get a really chatty one and never get any sleep. Yeah, there are probably a few really nice hunting stories, within all the scratches on that stock. If it is originally from around my area, I'd say it's put a few rabbit and squirrel on a table. Thanks for watching!
