Looking good! For the price, it was a steal!

I would stablize that tang crack before shooting it more.

Very nice!

Nice indeed!!

👍👍👍👍

Very sharp, especially at that price 👍

nice , i got a 22 H.P. in a take down neat neat old cartridge and rifle .

Rory, Thanks for posting the tang crack is not as bad as it appears in the photo it was a close up but I think I better stabalize it ive done some years ago taking out the wood on the under side but I really don't want to make a mistake on this is there a video or good description as to how other have done this?

Johno

thats a gem!

That's a beauty. It looks like it has the 20" lightweight barrel that was discontinued about 1926.

Johno, take good care of it. Here's pics of what careless use and stupid with a knife can do to a 99E, 22 H-P.

finally got the lightweight front sight pic

Really when you see some of that "art work " it makes feel weak in the legs.

I am happy with the rifle there is a very small chip at the toe I have matching timber from an old stock I could use to repair it but might just leave it be

Johno

That's a real dandy!
