Quite a few have, Winchester is one.
US Patent Office
Without the name of the maker there is no way to answer the question.
That's a patent date, you need to atleast describe what kind of rifle you have, pump, bolt, something.... Patent dates nor serials a model specific.
Impossible to answer without knowing who made it.
The patent date should be just in from of the bolt under the rear sight. But only if it is a bolt action!!!!
There were three different Winchester lever-action Models with the 1866 patent... the Model 1866, the Model 1873, and the Model 1876. The 1866 patent date refers to King's patent for the side loading gate mechanism.
marlin 35 cal. lever action. rifle/ Marlin makes the rifle ,but not the ammo for it.
None
The Browning (BLR) comes in a .223 lever action.
What year was #2094577 made? Also, I am missing the knob foe ejecting shells. I found a large knurled knob of small grooved knob.
Depends a lot on what type of rifle, patent alone doesn't cut it.
send me a picture of the rifle
