- This little rifle was produced between 1906 and 1941 with either an 18" or 20" barrel. The Model 14 1/2 was chambered in 22LR and was also a take down rifle. It has a two piece hardwood stock with a case colored receiver. It is a falling block utilizing a thumb knob to drop the block for loading and extraction. The Stevens Arms Company developed the .22LR cartridge in 1887. Some ways to get an approximate build date of this rifle (actual records were destroyed in a fire) is first look at the name on the barrel. If the name is shown as J. Stevens A&T (Arms & Tools) it was produced prior to 1916. If there is an SVG marking on the receiver this represents Savage Arms. Savage bought Stevens in 1921. They left the Stevens name on the produced rifles and just added the SVG on the receiver. The Stevens Model 14 is a single slab-side stock (non-take down) and I think it is chambered in .22 Long. Both the 14 and 14 1/2 are a true falling block design and not a rolling block. To see the difference between a falling block and a rolling block check out the Remington Model 4 rolling block produced between 1890 to 1930.
Very cool old rimfire, thanks for sharing the info
Thanks Bob!
What a little beauty. I love all the single shots.
Falling and Rolling block, break action.
There’s just something about going through all the motions that heightens the experience.
Save I agree with that. It is just something unique and this is a time machine too. What a work of art it is.
Very nice Cervus. What's nice is those kind of rifles stretch out a box of ammo.
Yes they do. That's a good point. Thanks Carbon!
I think this is the exact rifle I was looking for. I do home gunsmithing and a buddy just handed me a little rifle this morning to look at.
All the markings are worn off so I started looking through RUclips and I think thats the one. Gonna finish watching the video and I appreciate you making it, sir
Very cool and I am glad this helped you out. I've found some older videos on YT about this rifle. One guy has a video showing the complete break down of the rifle. It is titled: Stevens Little Scout Mod 14 1/2 Disassembly
@cervus-venator Thank you, sir. I'll be sure to check it out
Ringing steel !
Yeah, surprised me with that heave trigger that I could hit the steel. I really had to focus on keeping it on target when pulling the trigger.
.22 nunca faltara alimento a ese rifle😎
Tienes razón. Aunque se recomienda que solo le dispare potencia estándar. Está bien. tengo mucho.
Cool rifle❤❤❤❤
Thanks Curtis!
Cool old rifle. That was some boys dream rifle back in the day. Wonder how many squirrel and rabbit it's taken. I have an old Steven's Crack Shot in the back of one of the safes.
Cool Boom! I'd like to see that one one day.
That would fit in my collection ! Thanks 👍
LOL I hear you Mike! Thanks!
Neat little .22
Thanks Mike!!
That is the coolest old 22 I've ever seen
Yeah Paul, it is just unique.
Very nice find! That one would probably be handed down to grandkids. Love the walnut steel guns.
I agree Dan, just a nice little piece of work. certainly a piece of history. Thanks.
👍👍great find, thanks for sharing Cervus that’s a neat old 22.
Thanks Lance! Yeah, I just think it is a neat one to have.
I like it , haven't seen one like that. Looks early 1900s
Thanks Steve! Yes it is and I'm thinking 1925 or so.
Trigger and all, that is a great find!
Thanks! I think so too.
That's a really cool rifle! It's in really good shape!❤❤❤
Yes it is. I really like it and I'm very happy with how good of a shape it is in.
@@cervus-venator you definitely didn't go wrong with it!
Really cool looking .22, I have never seen a falling block. Very slick rifle.
Thanks Xtreme!!
Now that was a heck of a find. And shots great. Poor squirrels best pack up now and move out of your area. 😂😂😂
You got that right Jeff!! This is such a small little package and breaks down even smaller. It's my first falling block rifle.
Nice, I seen this after seeing a Heritage Settler Mares Leg .22lr. I’m may have to get one lol It was in 704’s channel ✌️
Cool rifle. Gun show prices ! ! Every thing is for sale just might not be on sale 😂😂😂
You got that right Mark. Luckily I sold a pistol there and that offset the cost for me.
Very nice ! It probably put alot of meals on the table over its time...
You got that right! Thanks Charles!
Nice find it is in great shape. You don't see many of the "boys" rifles from the 20'-30's that still show any case hardening and when you do you pay up for them!
True and that was this fellow's selling point. He was asking six hundred, but sold it to me for five fifty. Luckily for me I had just sold a Ruger Mark III Lite pistol and put that money towards the rifle. I came out of pocket a couple of hundred. That is why in the video I said it wasn't a deal on the price, but I wanted it and was willing to pay the money for it. I wanted it for several reasons with one being that it is a 100 year old rifle that's in great shape. It's a fun one to shoot for sure. Thanks for checking it out.
Long Rifle would approve!😅❤❤❤
LOL, I'm sure he would. Maybe I need to let him know.
@@cervus-venator I'm sure he'd love the video if he hasn't already seen it!
Cervus hey
Hi Randle 👋🏼
You were hitting that plate, no problem!
What ammo were y'all using?
I've heard that I should not use anything higher than standard velocity. I was using the Federal AutoMatch. I think it has a MV of right at 1000 FPS.
@cervus-venator without a chrono i wouldn't know.
By feel and hearing i think it's a tad hotter than CCI SV.
In the wise words of Paul Harrell
"Probably not enough difference to make a difference" 🫡
@@chrislang5659 I think it is listed on the box. But yes I think it is about 150 FPS than the CCI SV. And Paul was correct.
@cervus-venator 😅have a good evening Cervus!🫡
