It was about 35 inches long and a perfect gun for an eight year old.
I have a pre-ban CAR-15 (the AR with the collapsible stock). It worked out perfect because I could adjust the length to fit her. She had a blast shooting the thing too! She has fired that one at the range for a bit over a year now but she always wanted a pistol. The only .22 I had was a small Taurus with a very short barrel. I was a bit scared that she could get her finger accidentally in front of the barrel before she shot it. I finally found her this revolver - made in FL. Simple, single action revolver. Lots of fun. We took it out a few weekends ago for the first time - I'll bet she shot 300 round - 6 at a time.
I think I'll try and see if I can find the Anschutz you mentioned. It sounds like the perfect rifle for a youngster. Thanks for the suggestion.

I am constantly stunned by adults who don't have a gun in the house, "because we have children."
Mee TOO! That's exactly WHY I have firearms in the house!

I would say its a modern version of the Remington "gallery" rifle, that were once common in county fairs and carnivals. At one time, I had a collection of "boy's" rifles from the 1920s, all of them 34-36 inches long in .22 and the oddball .25-20 WCF. I was trying to build a new house in the Twin Cities in 1992 and another collector wanted them more than I did, and I needed cash. I've regretted it ever since.

I currently have a Anschutz Woodchucker for sale if interested. It is in very good condition. I am trying to find out what it is worth. It is a single Bolt 22 with the numbers WC10245.

If interested e-mail me: tiplee@gmail.com
