There are dozens of different models of the Mossberg 22 rifle. You did not tell us which model, and we need that to give you an answer. Sorry.
It is a Mossberg Model 800.
$269 new retail price.
Well, there is a problem. Your rifle is likely a Mossberg 45A made for Wards. These were made so long ago that makers did not furnish schematics. They expected a gunsmith to be able to fix a basic rifle without being told what to do. There is a Mossberg site under Epix Damguy Mossberg that has an illustration and parts listing for a Model 45B (very similar). Parts MAY be available from Havlin Sales through their website. These rifles are from 1937-1938, so parts may be scarce.
50-156 USD or so
It is a 22 Caliper Short, Long and Long Rifle Bolt Action Rifle, with a clip, that holds about 6 shells. From my understanding, it was based on the Mossberg Model 30, and made by Mossberg for Montgomery Wards. Made between 1933 and 1935.
It was manufactured by Mossberg. It is probably the model 353, and parts can be ordered atwww.havlinsales.com. The reason I am not certain is that there does not appear to be a written list for this cross reference.
Just guessing, but sounds like a Mossberg. Depending on parts, the best source is usually Havilin Sales. You can find a listing of parts on their website.
A history of Mossberg has been written and is available on Amazon
