hi there these rifles were made in Australia by the Lithgow small arms factory. the action is based on the Lee enfield .303 mil surplus action. the mag. was made in house and as the weapon is reasonably rare in numbers, sourcing a mag may be difficult. try the website here in oz and you may have some luck. Nice rifle I have one myself.

How can you find out what type of 22 rifle you have when all it has on it is SAF Lithgow for Slazengers Pty Model 1B?
Lithgow, New South Wales, is the location of an Australian government small arms factory. Slazengers is (was?) a sporting goods company in Sydney. That's all the help you'll get from me. I've got nothing in any of my references and don't think I've even seen a gun made in Australia. I have one, a single-shot, cock-by-hand, bolt action I bought used in New Zealand in 1983. The receiver is merely a bored-out section of the back of the barrel. It's a nice light gun for rabbits and vermin. I added a peep sight, and it's plenty accurate with .22 long rifles and shorts. G'day from Oz Slazenger rifles in order of production Slazenger Model 1B 22 cal SAF Lithgow Australia Slazenger bolt action single shot rifles were manufactured at the small arms factory under contract to Slazenger PTY LTD of Sydney. They were well designed, robust and renowned for accuracy. Production commended in 1940 with the Model 1. This was modified to the Model A1 with 120,000 of these being produced. Further mods led to the model 1B with over 20,000 being produced. The wooden furniture was made in Sydney by Slanzenger and supplied to the SAF assembly. Slazenger repeater Model 12 22 cal SAF Lithgow OZ. Production on the model 12 repeating rifle commenced in 1946 and ceased in 1955. The rifle was supplied with a 6 round box magazine and as in other models the barrel was produced from proved barrel steel to the same spec as that used in service rifles. The one piece stock is made from scented satinwood. A modofied version the 55 was produced 1955-1958 with a 5" shorter barrel. More than 100,000 model 12 and Model 55 were manufactured before slazenger decided to stop marketing them in 1958. Model 55 sorry for the lack of info Slazernger Hornet Prototype. it never made it to release though the prototypes ( 120) where sold [IMG]http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h271/Tikirocker/RIFLES/LithgowMuseum5.jpg[/IMG]
What is the difference between 22 LR and 22 Hornet?
The 22 Long Rifle has different size cartridges, But the 22 Hornet has pictures of deer killed with it. The 22 Hornet is a lot more powerful than the 22 Long Rifle. They both have different grain.
Can a 22 long rifle pistol shoot the 22 hornet ammo?
No. The .22 LR is a straight sided RIMFIRE cartridge. The Hornet is a bottlenecked CENTERFIRE cartridge. The chamber of a Hornet is MUCH bigger- you could not get a Hornet into a .22 LR chamber- and the firing pin would hit in the wrong place.
Can you shoot a 22 LR from a 22 Hornet Rifle?
No. They are totally different size and shape cartridges. 22LR si rimfire, 22 Hornet is a centerfire.
Is a 22 rifle the same as a 22 hornet?
22 hornet is a 22 calibre rifle. Most think of a 22 rifle as a rim fire rifle. But it shoots a 22 calibre bullet but the cartridge case that fires the bullet is no where near the same. The Hornet holds much more powder and is center fire.

How do you know if you have a Stevens 22 Hornet or Long Rifle?
The answer is probably stamped on the barrel. Does it say .22 Hornet? Most likely it says .22 LR or .22 Long Rifle. Two other things: The Hornet is a center-fire cartidge, "regular" .22's, be they shorts, longs or long rifle, are rimfire, having the priming mixture in the rim of the cartridge case. Look at the firing pin and see where it is located compared to the case head. On the edge?(rimfire) or centered?(Hornet) The chamber for the .22 Hornet is larger in diameter than the .22 rimfire, as the Hornet is a bottle-necked case. A .22 rimfire case will fall down inside the chamber of a Hornet and be loose. IF YOU PUT A RIMFIRE CARTRIDGE IN AND IT FALLS DOWN IN THE CHAMBER BE SURE IT IS OUT BEFORE YOU PUT ANOTHER CARTRIDGE IN OR YOU WILL HAVE AN EXPLOSION AND PERSONAL INJURY!!! My apologies. I believe the 22 Hornet is a straight or tapered case. I was confusing it with the 25:20, which is bottle-necked. The 22 Hornet is a "bottle neck" case, the rimfire has a straight case and will fill the chamber of the Hornet.
Can you shoot a 22 hornet out of a 22LR?
Nooo.
