Description:
1940s O.F. MOSSBERG & Sons Model 151M .22 LR Rimfire Semi-Auto Rifle C&R w/SCOPE

Introduced Post-WORLD WAR II

Here we present a C&R O.F. Mossberg &Sons Inc. Model 151M Semi-Automatic Rifle, chambered in .22 Long Rifle Rimfire, made circa 1946 in New Haven, Connecticut. This example was the top model of their .22 caliber semi-automatic rifles. The 151M was introduced in 1946 and was an improvement over the Model 51M which was a pre-war model. The 151M was followed in 1947 by the 151M(a), the 151M(b) in 1948, and the 151M(c) in 1954. The Model 151M had the steel butt plate, as the (a), (b), and (c) had hard rubber.

This semi-automatic autoloader was sold not only within the United States, but also overseas. Many young boys woke up on Christmas morning with their eyes beaming as they opened up their first rifle! They would have learned how to shoot with this rifle, including squirrels, rabbits, tin cans, and everything in between.
The overall condition is very good. Original finish and patina. The action is excellent. The bore is in fine shape, bright with sharp rifling. The walnut stock shows use and remains solid. The optics are clear.

This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic.

Barrel is 20 inches.
