WORLD WAR II U.S. Military MOSSBERG Model 44US .22 Cal. TRAINING Rifle C&R
U.S. TRAINER with LYMAN PEEP SIGHT
Description: WORLD WAR II U.S. Military MOSSBERG Model 44US .22 Cal. TRAINING Rifle C&R U.S. TRAINER with LYMAN PEEP SIGHT Here we present a C&R O.F. Mossberg & Sons Model 44US Training Rifle, chambered in .22 Long Rifle Rimfire, made circa 1944 in New Haven, Connecticut. The 44US target trainer was designed exclusively for the United States War Department and intended solely for the use of the U.S. Armed Forces. As it became clear to the Army that some cost cutting measures would be required, it was a clear choice when choosing a Rimfire .22 caliber training rifle. The Mossberg company already made and sold the Model 44B rifle, which fit the new US Army needs more closely. It was a simple bolt action rifle with a nice aperture sight but costing far less than the Model 1922. After discussion, Mossberg created a new model specifically for the military, which was the Model 44US. Initially, the No. 4 receiver peep sight was rejected by the Ordnance Department and the first contract of 14,500 rifles were made in early 1943 with the Lyman 57MS (Mossberg/Stevens) receiver sight and the plain S-122 front sight with a globe. Harold Mossberg designed the new S-100 receiver sight which replaced the Lyman for the remainder of the production run (57,128 rifles) which continued until production ended in March of 1945. Rarely today will you see an example with the front sight cover as the locking tabs were prone to fail after repeated removal and installation. The overall condition is fine. Original finish. The action is excellent. The bore is shiny bright with sharp rifling. The stock is solid and shows some wear. There is a pressure dent on the right side of the butt stock. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Barrel is 25 inches. Caliber: .22 Long Rifle Rimfire Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING. Will need to be sent to your local FFL or C&R licensee. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1400 #226716 SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes |
