anyone remember a 'colt colteer ' 22 lever action rifle
1967 Shooter's Bible shows the Colteer autoloader, but not a lever gun. Also a "Stagecoach" version with a 16 1/2" barrel and a saddle ring complete with leather thong. Looks real funky on an autoloader, but the gun itself would be short, light (4 3/4 lbs.)and handy.
There is also a Winchester auto/slide/levergun .22 series of the same time period, that looks quite similar to the Colt guns. The lever was the Model 250, the pump was the Model 270, and the autoloader was the Model 290. The lever and pump versions were also made in .22 WMR as the Models 255 and 275.
My uncle had one of the .22LR leverguns. It was OK as I recall, but seemed kinda cheap and tacky compared to the older Winchesters.
