24" barrel in .22 rimfire caliber. The barrel is dated SA April 1925. This beautiful, early, all original M1 features the rust blued finish. Bolt is stamped "J5". Has the original Model 1922 stock with finger grooves. There are no proof marks on stock which is correct for this model. It has the correct headless cocking piece. Perfect action and very good bore. Features the standard short slide Lyman No. 48 short slide (missing slide). This rifle needs a magazine. Stock is very good to excellent with usual dings. Bolt has not been altered to the short stroke. Has approximately 85% of the original dull military rust blue finish. There is some red paint on the 'ready' side of safety. The Lyman 48 slide and proper magazine should be fairly easy to obtain.
