New Stevens 416

Probably the most popular caliber firearm in most of the world. Many of us have more than one. They also are very collectible and still cheap to shoot.

New Stevens 416

Post by Calfed » Mon May 31, 2010 1:37 am

I got this at an auction last week. Came without a magazine

http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s194 ... s416-1.jpg[/pic]

The auction description was as follows:

STEVENS Model 416, #NSNV, .22 lr, 26 heavy barrel target rifle with heavy walnut stock and leather sling. Rifle is in good to very good condition overall showing some thinning to the original bluing and mild rust and erosion which"should clean. Stock is in good condition showing normal marks and dings consistent with use. There is a side mounted rear sight, which is missing the aperture, hooded front sight, and scope blocks. NO magazine.


I got a pretty good deal on it, but am a little concerned about the rear sight. It looks like it is incomplete or at least non-standard.

Anyone have any opinions on that?

Anyone have any idea on a source for a magazine?

I'll post better pics when it actually arrives.

Thanks
