Glad it was useful. I'd have to agree with you about liking rimfires, Nice light rifles for walking and cheap to shoot. Enjoy the older ones more than new stuff, because the quality for the price is much better than you will find with the new ones, and they have the added bonus of usually needing some sort of restoration, which makes a nice hobby for when you can't go shooting. Thanks for watching.
As long as all is running right it works well. As soon as the wood swells and the piece of mild steel bends a bit it could cause misfires. A bit more work on it or a plastic stock would make it a very reliable gun.
I've got one of these little rifles that was given to me by my grandfather give me when I was 10 years old, almost 60 years ago now. I've taken more squirrels and rabbit with it than I can count. I still hunt with it to this day. Never dry fire these rifles, you WILL damage the firing pin. Mine is very accurate and easy to tote around all day.
This posting made in Jan 2022. I have an acquaintance with one (from his grandfather). While is is obviously a single shot .22 long rifle, make for new shooters or youth, it was inexpensive, not 'cheap'. The metal parts are all fininished, and blued. No doubt time and use has dulled the finish, I''d be willing to bet the finish was quite well done. The checkering on the grip is hand done, rather a fine lined cut instead of heat pressed or simple smooth wood. Breech block is simple to make and operate, but is quite strong for the cartridge (would likely be enough for up to a .32-20 Win type round). The arm seems safe and functional to me. Probably not designed for current 'high speed' varieties, but standard velocity forty grain bullets would likely do just fine. Teach new shooters the basics and safty. No doubt serve for pests up to fox size (and pigeons) about the estate.
I always liked these, a friend of mine had one. I wanted to find one for my son (in case he was either left or right handed it wouldn't matter) but I couldn't find one around so I found a new Savage Model 30 (new version of the Stevens Favorite). Nice gun though.
Yeah they are fun, I just made a new short video on test firing it after I had fixed the light striking issue they have sometimes. You have to be careful though the triggers are less than a pound of pull (atleast mine is), always keep them in their "safe" position if you get one and walk with it. Apart from that it is surprisingly accurate, for a kids garden gun.
I have one that I'm rebuilding, the hinge section is broke and missing. I need to see how that part is made so I can duplicate it. It's the section that kicks out the extractor, any help would be great!!
Great Video. I picked one of these up the other day and it looks to be in great condition other than missing the front Site. Any ideas on where to get a replacement?
They are coming up in price. I bought mine with damage on the stock and needed adjustment to fire every shot on the first pull. At the time good condition was 150-200.
There is a pin that pins the whole thing together IIRC, knock it out and the spring will be removable, it may not be a spring issue you are having though, I made a video on the subject but I haven't posted it yet because I'm not happy with it. The piece of steel that connects the barrel to the trigger and that U for the mechanism to lock down on is mild steel, if it isn't "true" the U rubs on the cocking handle and slows down the striker. Causes failure to fire. Make sure the piece of steel is flat and that the cocking handle is even over the U before you start messing with the spring.
I have one of these. It says 22 kurz on the barrel and so it only chambers 22 short, not long rifle like yours does. Not sure which rifle was more rare, the one marked 22 long rifle or the one marked 22 kurz.
Not sure either, they had a few models including smooth bore ones, and a 9mm flobert one too. I almost picked up the flobert one I saw and the kurtz one too, unfortunately they are all around the same low value point as they don't seem to have a collectors market, even though they are an interesting little rifle. Good for buyers, not good for owners.
Great video explaining how it operates. I just got one myself and the spring to pull the action open is very stiff (I'm using two hands to forcefully pull it open) how did you get your action to be so smooth? Should I store it on "safe" to try stretching out the spring a bit?
@@Stray03 Thanks for the tip, looks like a previous owner had added some washers to the spring to make it more compact and harder to pull. I took them out and it helped quite a bit.
@@nickmcclellan5650 i think mine was jerry-rigged by a previous owner. At the bottom of the spring there were two washers cut into "C" shapes inserted that held the firing pin in. After prying it out with a screwdriver the firing pin came loose and could be removed easily. it was near impossible to get the two washers back in while holding the spring up. if your's was tampered with like mine I would not recommend removing the firing pin unless you have some extra hands to help you put it back in again.
@@nickmcclellan5650 Just took mine out of the safe. there is a Pin going through it but that looks to be a permanent piece that connects the knob to the firing pin. He is right, in an unadultered one there is a thick c-clip looking thing that when you draw off the spring from it you can pull it out, this will release the whole firing pin.
I have one of these too. It is missing the front screw on the stock, would you be able to tell me the length and thread type on this screw? mine does not have the adjustable sight. I'll have to put a video up of it.
front screw looks to be an M5x1.25 shank length 15mm head length 4mm head diameter 7 mm length of threaded part 6mm flat head screw. cylindrical head. hope it is clear.
Yikes! please don't dry fire rimfire firearms. Because there is nothing in the chamber the firing pin(hard metal) hits the chamber rim(hard metal). Other than that very nice rifle, I found your video because i was searching for more info/ a better look at the rifle because there is one listed for sale at a place I frequent for $150 but the stock is in need of repair, if that weren't the case I'd be all over it. It's a very neat gun. thanks for posting the video.
I know I normally don't dry fire firearms even centerfire, but On the videos I'll do it just for people to see how it works. Around here the guns are cheap, with the cracked stock on mine I Paid 50$. Thanks for watching.
is that a rtemade stock I have on like that the stocks not quite so heavy more a boys gun and the S type stamping in on the side of the stock also ~~ Know what they are worth ?
+RimfireRat There are too stock types I have seen on them, this one here, and a "cheaper" one which looks like it was cut from a flat thin piece of wood that didn't allow them to give it any curves. The gun is worth up here between 50 and 250 dollars (and 250 is wishful thinking for most people.) 100 to 150 is the going rate for a good shape .22 cal one.
I hope you know not to "dry" fire a .22 ? I saw you early on in the video do this and I cringed at the sound. Just saying...it can destroy your firing pin; a spent round can be used if you want to "fire" with no live ammo. Please don't take offense, thankyou. It is a really neat little .22Lr. Actually, not so little, short I should say. Appears to be about 25 inches in barrel length; hence where its accuracy comes into play, I do suspect. Having a number of .22 rifles and carbines myself. Three being vintage Cooeys. Two model sixty bolt action, tube magazine repeaters; variably firing short- long and long rifle, having 22inch barrels. And a single shot, model twentyfive, also handling all three chamberings of .22rf, with a heavy 25" target barrel. One of the model sixty's, is a Cooey; manufactured by the Singer Sewing Machine Co. It has been tapped for an offset scope. All three provide very fine accuracy. All three pre1965 / 1955. I have one Ithaca Lever model 72 saddlegun in .22Lr, a carbine. The action and barrel are from Dachau West Germany and the gun itself is finished and assembled in Dunnville, Ontario, Canada. A superbly accurate 20 inch with a hooded front syte. I have a number of Marlins, bolt action and semi-auto; rifles and carbines. One being a .22Magnum bolt, detachable box magazine with 22"barrel. And rounding out my rimfires-a Ruger, 10/.22Lr, Sporter Deluxe, semi-auto. Great plinker. But also a fair game/varmint getter. As its accuracy is quite decent; as I find all Rugers -be they rim or centre fire, rifle or carbine. Last count I was at nine rimfires in my small collection of firearms. I've been wondering about .17 calibre Hornady rimfire. I just have no hands on experience/familiarity with the particular cartridge.
This rifle you have seems to be fooling you, a little bit. You say it is marked D.R.P.. The problem with that is the D.R.P wasn't formed until 1950. So, either they got their hands on some of these, and put a different stock on it, and stamped their mark on it, or this gun is newer than you say. The reason is that in 1950, Erfurt was part of East Germany, not West Germany. Google D.R.P. Germany. Also, Google Deutsche Werke. Werk Erfurt, look at the second entry from the top. That rifle is pre 1939. As a kid in the 80's, we owned a rifle like that one. It did not have D.R.P. on it, and the stock looked like a the one in that entry. It had a large "D" on the stock. That being said, one kind of neat fact is that these guns also served as military training rifles. I imagine 8mm rounds were expensive back then to train troops to shoot. Yours is a great looking rifle though, just oddly marked.
guyjd1973 mine has the same markings on it with the drp. my back sight is a little differnt though. rather than an adjustable one, mine it fixed and is positioned on the end of the chamber that swings up
This is such a good beginners 22 design.
Idk why single shot rifles aren't more common. This design is beautifully simple.
Never be apologetic or defensive about simple, inexpensive firearms. Some of the BEST firearms are simple and inexpensive.
That's a fine rifle.

For a single shot - this loading process is very impressive. Looks cheap and reliable.
As long as all is running right it works well. As soon as the wood swells and the piece of mild steel bends a bit it could cause misfires. A bit more work on it or a plastic stock would make it a very reliable gun.
Simplicity is everything!

Fun little guns when they run smooth. I enjoy shooting mine still.
Thank you for the video.
I have one and it is a great rifle for what it is .
Simple all of it. easy to maintain.
Accurate once you sight it in.
Man that's things weird looking but as long as it goes bang! that trigger pull looks like there is hardly any creep in it, good vid keep it up

Not sure you can try numrich or see if there is another sight that can work instead of the original
Just bought mine today 5-11-2023. $400. Ouch
STRAIGHT stock! Non-adjustable rear sight... likely 1919-1922... love it already.

I don't understand what you mean.
i have this same rifle and the spring is weak... do you have any idea how to remove the spring? nice video

Hey did you ever get the spring out? How did you end up doing that?
Wery interesting gear! 👍
Hello how do I take the firing pin and string out of this thing?
Spring
There is a pin if memory serves at the handle end that has to be driven out.
Okay I can’t find it hahah been looking and trying to take it apart to clean and I don’t think it has been cleaned for at least 50 years
A guy just took it apart either on this vid or another of mine about the rifle. Check with him. He may have a tip for you.

+Stray03 mines the lesser stock but it has that lion stamp on the side of the stock about2" round .I gave $100 for it just because it was different
RimfireRat If it was in good shape then 100 dollars is a fair price. yours has a lion on the side not just the standard stamp?
+Stray03 the std stamp is the lion .NOT ? At first glance it looks like a big S in the circle ,but that the lions tail
RimfireRat Yeah some sort of hard to see cat lol, The way you said it I just assumed you meant A different Marking.

The Deutsche Reich (3rd) ended in 1945 when Germany lost the war. So did the name DRP . The current name is DPMA
