Little fellow followed me home.

I work at an auction and just bid on this Savage single shot .22 just in case it went for next to nothing. I was going to drop out at $70, bidding stopped at $65. I had expected the gun to go over $100.

Now all I have to decide, is which grandkid gets it.

good price for a good rifle that will serve its purpose. I wonder if it is on the newer side?

"...which grandkid gets it..." The one with the most interest.

Very interested stock, mannlicher-esque.

Model number?

Did you feed it or scratch it behind the ear? I here they are kinda like that. If you feed them or scratch it behind the ear they follow you any where.

Looks like a nice gun for a great purpose.

A double win, a .22 and a mannlicher stock. Great price too.

I'm very found of my Ruger 10/22 International model.

Sorry I didn't give more info.

It's a Model 63k made sometime in the 60's. Since it has a serial number it's probably the late 69s.
The stock is in great condition. The barrel is clean and shiny. There is wear, the bluing isn't perfect.

The grandkid with the most interest in guns is an adult with a little girl of his own. I'm thinking one of the grand daughters would be a better choice.
