Description:
A VERY FUNKY (AND INEXPENSIVE!) CUSTOM 1885 HIGHWALL IN CALIBER .22-3000, I believe this is simply the .25-20 Single Shot cartridge necked down, I think Buffalo Arms has brass etc. for this one, anyway, this one is only stamped on the barrel ".22-3000 L. King" so I assume Mr. L. King made this one, the action is tight and has had the lower tang bent for pistol grip with the antique serial number re-stamped on the upper tang, high comb/cheek piece stock was actually done in two pieces- upper and lower- and affixed together almost seamlessly, black hard rubber butt plate marked " No-Slip Butt Plate, Fray-Mershon Inc., L.A. Calif." (I found a listing for a patent they held for Pachmayr in 1935), 23 1/2" barrel is a U.S. Springfield .22 barrel dated 1931 and has had the barrel band front sight removed, black plastic pistol grip cap, heavy beavertail forearm with one large diamond checkered in the bottom held on with a single barrel band, scope blocks on the barrel, exc. bright bore, would be fun to shoot as is or make into something else.
