Still looking to get the rifle. I have a .218 Bee 43 Winchester Deluxe and Kimber .22 Hornet, Remington 25 in caliber 32-20 and handload for all of them. So, It looks like I might have rifle in all the chamberings pretty soon. Depending on what it looks like and all that stuff I might even tap and drill for a 6 power Unertle small game scope I have. Will have to see what happens next. It has two magazines with it if I understand correctly.
I just looked the gun up in the 1939 Stoger catalog and see what you are all talking about. Plan Jane and no Schnable forend shown so I guess this an early one.
