Browning 22 Takedown

[KahrMan]

As a lot of you know I have been looking for a 22 rifle.  Well I came into one but I do not think this will be used as my walking thru the woods squirrel gun.  I started a thread over in Handguns about a Colt Bankers Special that my Uncle gave me.  This was another one of the guns he gave me.  An older Belgium made Browning 22 Takedown.  This is a sweet little rifle.

Your uncle had very good tastes in guns. That one is a keeper!

I love the SA22, even though it tends to dump brass down your shirt sleeve. Wanted one all my life, and finally bought one new a few years ago.

He does.  He has a couple of other really nice mid 50's Colt target revolvers.  He said I don't get those till his will is read.

Just looked up the serial number and it was made in 1961.

Thanks for sharing the photos.

Very nice gun.  My granddad gave me a Savage 4 - 45 years ago that is priceless.  Still shoots dead straight.

They are great rifles. I've had one for years to include the Norinco copy of one. Both are great shooters.

I was raised shooting one of these.
