Title: What do I have?
Post by: Shot_Gunn on December 29, 2012, 11:40:52 AM: I recently inherited a rifle from my uncle who passed away. I can't seem to find exact information on it. I have posted a few pictures in hope that some of you experts can tell me exactly what I have. The only marking on the barrel says ".22 Cal short CTG". The serial numbers match and end in "B". I'm not looking to sell it, just want to know what I got and what you think it is worth. Thanks and any information is appreciated.
