Description:
The Springfield Model 1922 is a .22 Long Rifle bolt-action rifle introduced in 1922. It features a 24-inch barrel and a 5-round magazine. It was built as a cadet rifle, designed to mimic the M1903 Springfield rifle for training purposes. It was produced in several different versions until World War II, when shortages of materials made production of a training rifle impractical. Total production of .22 Springfields included 11,355 M2s. As new models of the .22 trainer were introduced, rifles returned to Ordnance facilities for repair or refit were updated to include the latest changes in parts and assemblies. The purpose was to bring rifles into conformance with the latest configuration and to minimize needed parts stocks (which it did), not to create collectors' arms (which it also did). When modified, a rifle's receiver markings were overstamped to show the upgrade and, because serial numbers of all post-World War I types of .22 caliber trainers began at No. 1, the serial number of the upgraded rifle was given a letter suffix—"B" for an upgrade to M2 configuration. Bbl. marked behind front sight "SA / flaming bomb / 5-37". Receiver ring is marked on top "U.S. SPRINGFIELD / ARMORY / MODEL OF 1922 / M11 CAL. .22". Marked over chamber w/ "T" & marked on left side of bbl. "LONG RIFLE / CART'GE ONLY". Rifle is fitted w/ a Lyman 48 receiver sight. Slide graduated to 125 points. Side has non-matching numbers. Blade front sight. Blued steel sight cover marked "R". Bolt is marked "NS / M2" & has been electro-penciled to match rifle serial number. Walnut stock w/ grasping grooves. Stock has boxed "SA" overhaul mark on left side of butt & marked under grip w/ encircled "P" proof. Coarse checkered buttplate w/o trap. Tan leather military style sling. MAGS: 1 detachable 5 rd marked "M2" on the left side. CONDITION: stock has nice original finish w/ light staining & scattered handling marks. Metal retains 85% of its lightly worn parkerized finish. Very good shiny bore. .22 Long Rifle
