My mate has a .22 semi auto he inherited and has no mag.
Just wondering if some one can identify it to see if I can get a magazine for it.

Looks like a Winchester model 64 semiauto. Few of them around still - and may take a mag that also fits other models.
It may also be a Cooey (from Canada). The model 64 was designed by Cooey, but Olin Winchester bought Cooey in I think the 60s and brought this model out under their name. Not entirely sure what happened next but Lakefield (another Canadian co) may have then bought the Cooey name/product line, and Lakefield of course was subsequently bought by Savage. Which is why this also looks alot like a Savage 64 semi. Like a bloody soap opera....
Serial should tell alot... as should any other markings. Where is old Muzza when you need him - he was very good with American rimfires?
It will be stamped on the barrel in front of the scope bell. Get a stainless , non-soaped pot scourer from the supermarket and some CRC and clean the rust off . Then you be able to see make and model.
I will do some research on that thanks mudgripz

Yep one of these. I think they had a diecast mag. I think the 64 was also known as something else as wellQuote:

What to do about a mag then?

Im pretty confident its a Cooey 64 or derivative.If so - this is the magazine you need . Its model specific so you wont find one from some other model to adapt. Sorry about the crap photos - not very good light in my storage vessel at night . JW 15 mag for comparison.

Yep - looks 99% like a Cooey/Winchester. Confirming this is sold as Cooey/winchester 64 mag - as in sportco's pic:

But mag changed in later Lakefield/Savage 64 derivatives:

Andy - I think you'd have to get lucky to find one. Riflemags.UK has Savage 64 spares, not the Cooey/Win.
yes - locating an original wont be easy. Mine is not for sale , sorry
steel wool an auto transmission fluid, then as soon as its clean, wash it off well with hot soapy water then clean water then meths.
then do a cold blue job
mags are going to be an issue
Hmmmm, might wait for another buy back and get a whole lot of money for a rifle that's no good to me!
Thanks heaps for your knowledge guys!

Wash your mouth out with something akin to Waikato.
Don't want one of those again especially for run of the mill 22s
Look at aussie, could go they same way at some stage?
@blip they did it all at once after port Arthur. Not death by a thousand cuts like us
Death by a thousand cuts is way more fun...
Its about to start again in WA. But looks like SFA compensation.Quote:
