My .22 1885's

I was taking some pics of my latest addition, a standard low wall in 22lr, and I decided to get its siblings out for a family photo.  I know the pic is not great so I will retake a better one once I find the 'right' fourth rifle to go in there, a .22lr with a scope on it.


High wall .22lr 1914
Low wall .22 short 1889
Low wall  .22lr 1902

Classic lines on that middle rifle, makes the highwall look like a pork chop with a barrel and stock stuck on it. I like it. The middle rifle. I want it.

I agree Joe. That middle one is sleek and sexy.

The middle one is obviously the special one but I like the High Wall just as much.

Ballards may be weaker,

You can please me with any one of these lookers. I cut my single shot teeth on guns like the upper and lower ones. I've never strayed very far from there.
Never owned a fancy one like the middle, but I'd sure like to.
Thanks for showing these to us.

Looks more like a good steak to me!
Then, again, I own Stevens tip-ups
