Answer 1

Your Rifle is a Winchester Model 1902 "A". These were manufactured between 1902-1931.Total Production of these rifles were 641,319 (Approx)

The rifles manufactured in 1914 were chambered for .22 Extra Long Caliber (Interchangable with 22 Short or 22 Long Caliber).
Your particular Firearm is worth between $175-$195 depending on the bore condition, based on your photographs.
If it is in fact a family heirloom, I would NOT sell it under any circumstances..

NOTE* With the sale of USRA Corporation (Winchester's parent corporation) in 2006, it is anticipated that Collector'svalues on these rifles with increase over the next few years. Suggestion: Keep it well oiled and stored in a moisture free enviornment and do not attempt to clean it up in any way, or risk it losing it's value...

Answer 2

As a long way as valuing gun rights, so will we Marxian socialists. If it implies that the conservatives and liberals hesitate even 5 seconds earlier than imposing their so much oppressive legislation, like Clinton's "Anti-terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act," or Bush's "PATRIOT ACT," any disorders from public violence are good valued at it -- specially when you consider that extra folks die from meals allergic reactions within the U.S. than from civilian gunshots (despite the fact that no longer adding, I would upload, police shootings) Look, what do you name a situation wherein simplest the police have weapons? A police state, correct? I do not wish to reside in a predicament wherein the Nazis, the KKK, the New Federalists, the law enforcement officials, anti-exertions corporation goons, the Mafia, gang bangers, anti-abortion nuts, and homosexual bashers, are the one ones with firearms. And we are living in a heartless and merciless capitalist society, wherein there are hundreds of thousands at the facet, actually pressured into crime. That's something there may be by no means any scarcity of --- folks with not anything left to lose, inclined to make use of violence to take what little the massive boys have allowed the leisure people to have. Are you underneath the phantasm that police defense in a deficient or minority vicinity is some thing however a tragic shaggy dog story? Not to say the truth that actually hundreds of thousands of Americans reside in locations to this point again within the sticks that anyone in NY or LA could name it desert. There are plenty of grime-deficient folks there, and this nation has the least-wide and so much poorly-funded social welfare procedure of the whole industrialized global. If the conservatives wish to remove their welfare and meals stamps (which might be already approach too little), and the liberals wish to disarm them in order that they can not hunt, what precisely do you advise that those folks EAT? .
