The mossberg model 151K was made from 1950-1951.
The Mossberg Model 151-K was made for two years only: 1950 and 1951.
It was only made for two years- 1950 and 1951.
The value of a Mossberg 151K .22 rifle typically ranges between $200 and $400, depending on its condition, originality, and any included accessories. The Mossberg 151K was produced from the late 1940s to the early 1950s, making it approximately 70 to 80 years old as of 2023. Collectors often seek this model for its unique design and historical significance in the .22 rifle category. Always consult a licensed firearms appraiser or local gun shop for a more precise valuation.
The Model 151k was produced 1950-51. The average value for the model in good condition is approximately $100-$150. It is one of my favorite guns to shoot. Very accurate.

No exact production numbers avaialble that I know of, but they would have not been extremely high- that rifle was only made for 2 yrs. (I have two of them- for a hunting grade of rifle they are VERY accurate)

Find a good gunsmith and ask for help.
If your rifle is a Model K (not a 151K, or 640K, just Model K) THAT is going to be a challenge. That rifle was made from 1922 to 1931. I would suggest that you contact Vic Or Cheryl Havlin through their website at havlinsales, and that you check the Mossberg board at the rimfirecentral website. The Havlins perform gunsmithing and sale of parts forr Mossbergs, and operate the Mossberg Collectors Association. Good luck. Did that thanks, I actually belong to the Mossberg Collectors Association. They do not have parts right now. This is actually the "s" version of the 22 and is missing the loading assembly I am hoping to find a parts gun so that I can restore this one I think the parts from the "k" model will work also.
You will not find one, since these were never serially numbered. That model was only made in 1950-51. Serial numbers were not required by US law on rifles and shotguns until 1968. And yes, it is perfectly legal. I collect older Mossberg 22s, and only those that were purchased by the US military ( Model 44 US for example) have serial numbers.
I've just seen one listed for as low as $60.00 and another listed for $260.00. I guess it depends on the condition of the rifle. Maybe one in great condition can sell for more???
To find the serial number on a Mossberg 151K, you should look on the left side of the receiver, just above the trigger guard. The serial number is typically stamped into the metal and can be somewhat small, so you may need good lighting or a magnifying glass to see it clearly. If you have difficulty locating it, consult the owner's manual for specific details regarding your model.
