Just realised that my father has s/n 2144 that was rebuilt by CPA back in the 90's. It was originally a model 47 38/55 but is now a 25/20 SS M54. Unfortunately I can not locate the original trigger guard or barrel but do have the original stock and fore end.

Exceptional work by CPA and I will endeavour to post some pictures when I can.

Also have an unfinished project "Lady Model" that was converted to 22. hornet originally but now sports an unfinished un-chambered hexagonal 25 cal. Stock work is a repro based on the 47 stock and fore end from the previously mentioned rifle. Not sure of the serial but will post it as soon I can gain access to the rifle.

S/N 10070 complete single-trigger action with correct loop lever is for sale on GB at the moment for too much $$ (no surprise there).

I am the happy owner of the Stevens 44 1/2 that my Great-Grandfather Wilson, whose family worked for the Peters Cartridge company, purchased brand-new with a 6x J.C. Stevens external adjustment scope.  It is chambered in .22 LR and I have had CPA Rifles make a second barrel for it, chambered in .30-40 Krag, in which I fire only cast boolits.  Serial number is #12083

I have seen several 44 1/2 in the low 500 serial number range and none in the 400s. The highest I have seen is 12934. It is believed that none were made over 13,000.

#11,282 is a 22lr with a 34" barrel-I've never seen another Stevens 22 with a barrel that long.
#9,460 is a DST with a Pope lever and 7 custom fitted barrels.
