Very nice there, 5shot.
As far as the microgroove rifling, it was introduced in the rimfires first, around 1953.
Not at home at the moment so I can't reference my Brophy's book.

Great minds think alike Vaquero, I took this pics last night from my Brophy.

5shot, here’s some info on your M/100 including info on the Micro-groove barrel.

Thank you for the research Hatch!! RP...Seems like your rememberer ain't too far off. I would guess at 1957-59. The gun is a microgroove, walnut stock, stamped steel trigger guard with a 22 inch barrel.

I still wonder how they would price this at $39 but the sales guy made it clear that this category of gun couldn't be returned. If you bought it and it doesn't work it's your problem.

I'm just finishing the Sears Roebuck Model 25 auto loader. Hoping to get all three of these bargain specials to the range tomorrow or Monday. Stay tuned.

[Vaquero]

thanks.
Hope you get 25 going, and am patiently awaiting the range report.
