Hope someone can help me with the identity and origin and value and needed bolt. I collect older 22's and this one just came in. It is marked on top of rhe barrel "Belgium The New Century". Marked on top of the receiver "BREVETE and under that (S.G.D.G.). It is a very small rifle, has no butt plate, sports an 18 inch round barrel, has a serial number, one piece stock has a stamp in a cirle - first line is REGISTERED under that a picture of a horn with a N in a double circle above that and bottom line says trade mark.If anyone can assist me in locating a bolt for this it would also be appreciated. You can reply to this request or email fred@hunters-den.com. Thanks.

  According to Jim Perkins ("American Boys' Rifles 1890-1945"), your rifle was built by Mauser at the Liege plant in Belgium. It was first imported in 1903 with the 18" barrel until 1910 when it went to 20". I see a bolt for a Belgium 22 cal in ************ #6224411. It doesn't look like the picture in the book, but who knows???? Best wishes on your hunt.

  Thanks kidsgun for the information. I'll look at that auction and see if it might work.
