Springfield .22

Question
I have a Springfield .22 riffle made by J.Stevens model #56. I was wondering if you knew about how old it is, and is it a common riffle.

Answer
David,

It was made between 1920 and 1942. It is not what I would refer to as a "rare" gun at all. It was manufactured as a quality utility rifle and in "good" condition would have a current retail value of approximately $125.

Thanks for the question David.
