I have a Springfield model 87a. 22 short an long rifle automatic. It was made by j. Stevens firearm co in Chicopee falls mass USA. Can I get a parts catalog for it an when was it made
If it's marked Springfield and not Stevens, probably circa WWII or so (though they weren't used by troops in the war, that roughly coincides with when they were sold to sportsmen under the Springfield brand name).
The Springfield 87A is a semi-automatic .22 caliber rifle that was produced from 1938 to the early 1950s. Therefore, if we consider its introduction year, a Springfield 87A manufactured in 1940, for example, would be approximately 83 years old as of 2023. The specific age would depend on the exact year of manufacture.
