A somewhat short story if you dont mind.........I had purchased a Glenfield model 25 awile back from a gun store. I wanted a 22 cal that would shoot all three 22 rounds from the magazine, and this one fit the bill. A fine little rifle. The problem was, is that I couldnt get it out of my wifes hands long enough to shoot the thing! Fine then, I went to gun show this weekend in Houston with the intentions of finding another like it, so I could shoot it. I was extremly lucky to find one, the only one in the whole show. I had walked about 2/3's of the tables and found it because I got there as soon as they opened the doors. I talked to the guy a bit about it, then stepped back and told him that if I didnt find another I would surely be back to get that one. As soon as I stepped back, another guy stepped in and looked at the tag on it. As soon as he let go of the tag and backed up, I went right back up there and bought it lol. Wasnt going to take a chance of losing it. Thought "well if I find another, I'll just buy two!" Turns out there was only this one, and I feel really lucky to have gotten it. Once home I found that I had to disassemble the bolt and remove the stuck/mushroomed firing pin, and reshape it. Easy fix really, and it needs the ejector tab that was completely missing, again another easy fix and the parts are already on order. Turns out to be an 82 model, and in alot better shape than the one I already have. The wife can keep the "old model" lol. Just wanted to tell the story, cause I was tickled to find one. Thanks! TB
