Winchester 67A - need info

benzapped
I bought a rifle today that I need some info on. My book of values doesn't show that particular model for some reason. The rifle is a single shot Winchester 67A in about 98%. There doesn't appear to be a serial number.

I am quiet sure it is not a valuable collectable, but I was wondering what the value shows to be in your book. Also, if it shows the dates of manufacture and total quantity made knowing that would be appreciated.

Do you have any info on it?

The little rifle was in such good condition to be an oldie I simply could not pass it up. My daughter has asked me to teach her to shoot, and that seemed to be the perfect rifle to do it with. I shot it this afternoon and it hits exactly where it is aimed... and I mean exactly.

Thanks in advance.

    Hello benzapped...

    The Winchester Model 67/67A was never serialized. I do not remember what the exact production number was, but it was several hundred thousand. The production ran from 1934 - 1963, with the 67A making its appearance in late 1938 (if my memory is still functioning correctly). I am sure that your 67A is a late production rifle. I will look up the exact production numbers later this evening if you are still interested.

    It is a dandy rifle to teach your daughter to shoot with, and as with all Winchester .22 rifles, they are superbly accurate. Typical values run in the $100 - $300 range, and your rifle is most likely at the upper end of that range.

    I bought one new in about 1962.Cost was about $20.00 plus tax.A frind has had it since about 1966.I will get it back someday.I also have a model 67 Youth model with a shorter stock and barrel that I got in a trade in 1980.Traded a wards Hercules 12 gauge shotgun for it.Seen one last Saturday at a gunshow for a $100.00 bucks.It looked like Davy Crockett had used it at the Alamo.I may have bought it if they had not drilled holes in it to mount a scope.

    OK, here is the scoop on the Model 67/67A;

    Introduced in 1934, with the first rifles delivered to warehouse stock on April 19, 1934. Changes were authorized on January 8, 1938 to the bolt & extractor system, and the Model name was redesignated to 67A. Model 67/67A rifles were not serialized for domestic sales, but were numbered for foreign export. Production was discontinued in 1963 with a total of 383,587 made.

    EVILDR235,Tell me how you plan to get a gun back from a friend who has had it for almost 40 years? I have friemds who have had some of my things for about 15 years and they refer to them as "theirs" now. After a while, some loans are considered gifts, at least by the borrower.

    I sold it to a friend in 1966.He thought he could convert it to 22 magnum by reaming out the chamber.His dad found out what he did and stopped him before he could fire it.I will take something to trade to get it back,or some cash.I will have a gunsmith reline the barrel.If it can't be repaired,it will be a wall hanger and a soarce of spare parts for my other one.

    I learned to shoot on a model 67 as a kid. I still have one in my gun safe, but it's been cut, crowned, powder coated, drilled, tapped, scoped, stock's been re-worked and bbl will be bedded this winter. Don't ask why. I just felt like dumping nearly $300.00 into a gun that retailed new $25.00 ar the Monkey Wards in Yuma CO circa 1963. Now I'd like to have one in as pristine of shape as I can find for a little "compare and contrast".

    The youth model 67 that I own at this time I reworked back in the early 1980s.Reblued it and refinished the stock.I also removed some wood around the rear of the bolt to make it easier for my daughter to pull the bolt back.My daughter has lost intrust in it,but my wife enjoys shooting it.My grand daughter will enjoy it someday.
    PS Just remembered a friend of mines son has one also.If was given to him by a good friend who has since gone under.
