Thread: Does anyone know what model of Anshultz .22LR this is?

I’ve been given this by my FIL and I can’t work out what model it is, any idea?

Yep, I can tell you. Just need to dig it out later today.
It's exactly the same in every respect as my first rifle (still got it) bought in 1966.

Model 1450, and it's Anschutz, no "L". Great little rifle!

I'd always thought mine to be a 1416 but looking on giggle the 1416 has a turned back bolt which mine doesn't nor do the giggle images of the 1450.
And at some stage they went to silvered bolts whilst mine and the OP's are blued. These all seem to have a different rear sight to ours, Whether the change to silvered bolt was a model change I do not know. I prefer the blued bolt.
I actually bought mine in 1965 not 67.
Your serial number starts 365nnn whilst mine starts 380nnn.
As said, great little rifle.

Whats google say it is

The model no is on the barrel for most JGA’s.

I had a 1450D. They have the Flobert bolt. The one in the image is not a flobert bolt but might be a 64 bolt. So 1415/16?

The 1450 only have one screw holding the action into the stock from memory.

My guess is that it's an 64 action with the bolt handle being above the trigger, and that it's an early 1415/1416. 1415s have a birch stock and 1416s have a walnut stock. The 1966 1415 that I had a while back had a silver bolt with a straight handle and a birch stock with a sharply angled front end of the stock. It didn't have a model number stamped on it. Here's a page with an Anschutz ad from Shooter's Bible in the 60's. These rifles were also called '64 Sporters before the 1415/16 name was used and Savage sold the same rifle as a Savage 141m.
