Item Description: Greetings Fellow Patriots. I've decided to part with the most unique rifle in my collection. This is a Sear's Roebuck J.C. Higgins Model 30 semi-auto. From the research I've done it appears to have been mfg. between 1952-56, most likely by High Standard. Condition is close to perfect & it has a Rifleman 4x scope which is also J. C. Higgins. This model features a retractable, built-in sling, which is something I've never seen. If you collect .22 rifles, this is is must see!!!

Georgia DL & CWL required for purchase; prefer to show in Hall County during daylight hours only please. Check my feedback & come have a look-see w/o obligation. Absolutely no disappointments here!!!

Thank you for looking & ALWAYS think gun safety!!!

The year was 1968. My mother a single parent , raising her son. Took me to Sears & Roebuck and bought her 11 year old son a Stevens and Savage single shot 20 ga. for $12.50 . I've bought , shot and sold alot of guns over the years. I still have that gun. I haven't shot it in years. I think I'll run a few shells thru it this weekend . Thanks KFD2288 for bringing back good memories.......and thank you mom for buying your son his first gun. I think about you every day mom, I love you and miss you

I think I still have a fitted hard case in the attic for that exact model rifle with scope, from that same Era. If anyone is interested, after they buy the rifle.

Oh! Ponce was the place. Atlanta Crackers ball park was across the street from the Sears building. When I was drafted in 1967 I was inducted inside that building. The Big Dipper was the roughest bar I ever went in. Memories.
