Stevens 1915 Favorite 22cal Rifle - This is a Stevens Model 1915 Favorite Falling Block Rifle chambered in .22 caliber, serial number 5403, featuring a 22 3/8-inch octagonal barrel. The bore is in good condition with strong, prominent rifling and no visible pitting. The rifle is equipped with adjustable iron sights and retains a wooden stock and foreend. The receiver shows heavy surface rust and some scratches, and the lever bluing is worn from regular use. The foreend is cracked and loose, while the buttstock has multiple dings and scratches, though it remains structurally intact and appears repairable. The firearm is fitted with a brass butt plate. Mechanically, the lever drops approximately ¾ inch, but the action, hammer, and trigger function smoothly. The barrel shows some exterior wear and dings, but is otherwise in solid shape. Overall, this is a fair-condition early American rimfire rifle with functional potential and collectible value. C&R eligible; otherwise an FFL/4473 required.
