I have recently come into possession of a .22RF rolling block rifle which is marked "AMERICAN BOY SCOUT" on the frame. Can anyone shed any light on this rifle?
Thanks in advance.

Re: American Boy Scout
Go to Google and enter "Rolling Block American Boy Scout" there is a ton of information on it but basically it was produced between 1913-1923, was called the Model 4S, and came in 22 Short, and 32 Short Rimfire. Google it and you will get all the info you need.

The ABS stamped rifles were early production. Approximately 1,500 were produced. The highest serial # we found was 1,482. Later production have Military Model stamped on them.
