Colt Stagecoach, .22LR Semi-Automatic Rifle

Description:
Dating from when black & white TV westerns like Bonanza, Gunsmoke, Rawhide and The Big Valley, Colt produced a line of rifles that every cowboy-hat wearing kid would want.  The Colteer & Stagecoach rifle blended modern production with cowboy styling.

These rifles were semi-automatic rimfire .22LR with a painted aluminum receiver and walnut furniture, the Colt Stagecoach and the very similar Colt Colteer both debuted in 1965. While the Colteer had a longer 19.5-inch barrel and plain receiver, the Stagecoach was a more carbine-length plinker with a 16.5-inch barrel and 13-round under-barrel magazine tube.  The Stagecoach got its name from the engraved and gold-color-filled holdup scene on one side of the receiver.  It also featured a saddle ring rear of the receiver and barrel band around the front forearm, the latter reminiscent of that seen on a lever gun. A hooded front sight and adjustable rear came standard.

As for our rifle, this Colt Stagecoach carbine was manufactured in 1970 and is in all original condition with some marks on the stock, forearm and scratches on the receiver & barrel.  The pictures accurately portray the rifle and all things considered, it is in good condition and would certainly be a treat at the range, plinking some cans.

For Colt fans and fans of the thriving cattle range wars of the 1860s and 70s, or those looking to relive those 1960s and 70s TV dinners, the Stagecoach is a neat, albeit almost forgotten, treasure from those days.
