I don't know about Perfect Style, but they could have called it Nifty Stock easily enough. Picked this up a while back, it shoots well enough with the occasional jam where the spent shell gets in the way.

I couldn't find a whole lot of info about these but apparently it's the same action as a Stevens 87-series without the gills, the bolt holds open with the trigger and it sounds like a stamping machine in a factory. I think Herters had them made in Germany in a lot of different calibers and they were mainly sold in Canada and parts North.

Nicest wood I've ever seen on a .22! :thumbsup:

I have a Stevens 87 D I think it is. Cool guns. Some people call them Click Clack guns due to the trigger set up you mentioned. I wish mine had a stock like yours.

Holy mackerel! That is one sweet rifle! :Drool1: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I have about 15 of the old "gillers", in various configuations. I have one with only a couple of gills. It is not a Savage/Springfield/Stevens, nor is it a a hardware version made by the three S's. It is a close copy, well built. The only marks we could find is K1520, I think it is. The magazine tube is bigger diameter, but it is a .22lr.

I got started with an old Savage 6AB and went over the deep end after that.

The Herters G1 looks like the Remington 550-1 which looks like it's connected to the Savage- stevens gill rifles. The Armscore M20p and M1600 rifles looks like an updated magazine fed version of the Herters G1 and Rem.550-1. Does anyone know the years the Rem. 550-1 were manufactured?
