The 22 cal Springfield did not sell that quickly. Often rifles would sit at Springfield waiting for a buyer. When the rifle was sold it was usually upgraded before going out the door, hence the 1922 rifles with 1922M1 bolts. As Herschel has stated, there are documented rifles. In the same manner you will find 1922M1 NRA versions with the early M2 bolts. These are the rifles Butch Eyberg observed. Again, there is an actual 1922M1/M2 rifle, but this is a later unique piece. Barrel dates run into the M2 production run and metal has a very nice rust blue finish. I have observed barrel dates of 1935 and 1937. Stock are the NRA style.Comment
