Trying to find info about this gun, bit lost.

Hello everyone,

I hope this is the right venue to pose this question. I'm sitting here looking at a gun on which, I can find absolutely no information besides what is stamped on the gun. All of that means, I can't determine an approximate value either. Basically this is a gun that appears to have been made by a Wright's Gunshop in Bloomsburg, PA. The firearm is chambered in .257 Roberts and that's everything I know. Does anyone have any approximation on the age, the value, any info on the web about it or the manufacturer? Much obliged.

Sounds like it is a custom made weapon from the 60's or 70's ?

That's like asking what does my wife weigh. You need to post a photo or at least describe what is is.

Constitution Hour,

You are my hero, I don't know how you did it but that's incredible.

Google is your friend, this was listed in the business directory from 1966 for that township in PA. You are welcome.
FWIW it looks to be built on an old Mauser action, very common for custom gun makers of the day. Nice looking rifle.

I was 8 pages total deep into a Google search and found nothing. Maybe I didn't use the proper phrasing.
