	Could it be some sort of prototype or one off factory custom? I shares a similar loop lever as this custom “range” model. (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links)

First send photos to a photo-hosting service like Imagur and then they will be resized automatically. Right click on the image with your mouse. Then click on "open link" and it will reduce them to full screen size. I do it all the time with images posted here. Takes a couple seconds to do. When done looking, hit the "backspace" key and it returns you to the post.

	The dimensions are all consistent with a Favorite. The lever is either scratch made or shop made loop welded to the original lever stub. It is a not badly done build, the only shortcoming being the short bottom tang and its inherent weakness compounded by the addition of the sling.

Now that lovely item is a Stevens No. 47 built on the 44 frame! (Same model later made on the improved 44-1/2 frame.) Compare the lever, trigger, and other details, to see how crude, comparatively speaking, are the same parts of this "unknown."

I was not trying to compare the quality more the aesthetics (I.e. loop) I also find it hard to believe this was a garage project. Jmho

It is fairly apparent that the hammer, trigger and lever are shop made or modified, not of Stevens origin while the receiver is. Such work is well within the skills of a tool & die maker.

I guess this is plausible, it just seems silly someone would go to all this effort for a gun that’s not even valuable and replacement parts are readily available.
