Can you identify these old rifles?

[blackdeuce]

I've bought a number of S&Ws the past few weeks, but I haven't posted pics, so I thought I'd post pictures of............. old rifles that I've purchased. Lol.

I thought it might be fun to see if people can identify them. More info might be needed, but I figured I'd start with photos.

Any guesses? Top is #1, middle is #2, and bottom is #3.

My guesses:
No 1 - a Winchester 94 saddle ring carbine missing the ring
No 2 - a CZ Bolt action .22 model 457 or thereabouts.
No 3 - a Mossberg bolt action .22 model 146B

Now cut loose with the handgun pics.

Winchester 1894, BRNO or CZ452, Mossberg 146 T bolt

Are you saying that there are no markings....wait....you're having fun! Got it.

Old lever guns are usually Winchesters or Marlins, mostly the former. The bolt gun I have no clue, probably a Remington if I had to guess. The photos are in line, and there are 4 but if the first two are different then I'd gamble on a Trapper model for the second, missing the saddle ring.

I was too quick to respond above and have modified my post.

oof, I just realized you could click on the pictures and get more and larger views.

Doesn't matter, I can't remember which had the forend like that, I think the 452 Trainer did but the stock is too nice. Maybe a 452 lux?

 

[blackdeuce]

Man, I thought that would be harder. Lol.

#1 is a 1918 Vintage Winchester 1894 saddle ring carbine. I have a ring, but haven't installed it.

#2 is a 1966 BRNO No 2 in 22lr. Probably similar to a 452 trainer or lux as was mentioned. A 452 trainer is the first rifle that I bought for all three of my boys.

#3 is a Mossberg 146B 22lr. Late 40s, I think. When I think of Mossberg, I think of lower quality, but this old gal is well made.

The receiver being grooved to accept scope rings suggests 1950's to me. The "T" bolt is somewhat sought after. That looks like a very nice Mossberg scope mounted on it. Some of those seem to fetch more than the guns!

You're probably right. I think the T bolt means it's an older one, but I don't know the years.

It is an original scope.

It's in nice shape for an old 22. A lot of them rode around in a pickup and got beat up.

I'm reading that the 146b was made from 1949 to 1954. The model with the T handle is most likely 1949.

146B 1949 1954 bolt action 22 tube fed, T-bolt handle S101/
S107/S130 sights
146B-A 1954 1957 same as 146B with round knob bolt handle,
S137 sight replaced S1

Those old Mossbergs were shooters.

I never owned a BRNO but am in to CZs, I have several of them, loving my 452 Fullstock.

Thanks for giving us the mental exercise!

So, Black Duce....are you impressed with the "boys" & their quick, and IMHO correct info. I sure am. I was expecting lots of questions about the "94 Winchester: caliber; serial number; when was it made; etc. In another life I was up to my elbows in the Winchester world....and ready to contribute. Who knew the Mossberg would be the center of attention.

Yeah, I was kinda surprised as well.

All three are pretty cool. IMO.

I saw a CZ BRNO #2 from '65 at the Dallas Arms Collectors Show years ago while I was looking for a Ruger 77/22. The guy had $600 on it and we negotiated but never could meet in the middle. A couple of hours before the end of the show he showed up at our table with the rifle and said he didn't want to take it home.
I still use that gun for all the mobile varmints around the farm as it is the most accurate rifle I own. Hollow point shorts are flying death out of that thing. Still has the same Japanese Nikko/Sterling 4x it came to me with.
