Made in New Haven, Conn...

Model 142-A 22LR

Recently lost my father and he left me this Rifle. I was wondering if anyone knows of a source for an extra clip for this rifle. I'd like to know the year it was made too.

Man it's beautiful.

Thanks

Shag,

For everything Mossberg. Magazines can be tough though.

Put in a WTB advert here, or over at Rimfirecentral.com.

They aren't an uncommon rifle, so it shouldn't be hard to find one.

I got a Mossberg from the 1930s for $50 this summer at an estate deal at a gun show.

It needed a magazine. I bought one from Ebay that cost ~~ what the rifle cost.

I thought it was a Win 52 at a distance.
There was no price tag.
When I asked, I thought they would say $1,000.
When they handed it to me, one guy said, "$100.... oh how about $50?" and I am still thinking it is a Win 52.
Then I had it in my hands and I saw it was a Mossberg and said, "OK, I'll do $50."
Later at home taking it apart and comparing it to taking Win 69 and Win 75 rifles apart, the Mossberg is very well built like a Win. Not the same design, but equal in sturdiness and number of machining steps.

I would pay $50 for any Rem 510, and they are cheap stamped pieces of sheet metal inside.
