22 rifle
All I can read on this gun is: J.Stevens A&T Co. Chicopee Falls, Mass. USA On the rear part of the barrel it says: ???NS-MAYNARD JR 22-LONG RIFLE This rifle is a lever action type gun, you pull the lever down and the gun hinges open to load. You put the shell in pull lever up to close and it has a hammer for firing. Octagon barrel. Can you give me any insight on this gun. Is it an early "Favorite" ?

Your Maynard Jr. was mfg 1900-1911. It cost $3.00. It came in a "shot" configuration (without rifling) as well as the .22 short, long or long rifle. From 1900-1906, the stock was made from flat board and from 1906-1911 it was rounded or oval when looking at it from the butt forward. It is definately not a "Favorite" which is about 38" long while your Maynard is only 33". They are a rare little rifle due to their inexpensiveness and their sole purpose for existence....providing boys with hours of shooting pleasure which wasn't rewarded with sound cleaning practices. 0
