Indians For Guns

After 25 long years of waiting I have finally got this treasure in my hands. It belonged to my Father who bought it pre 1984 on one of his trips abroad.

I am a very poor photographer so i have not even bothered to take the pictures. I am taking the pictures from the company website and due credit to them for such an excellent product.

Ladies and Gentleman i present to you the Winchester 9422 .22LR XTR

A friend of mine called it a Little Beauty and i will call it the same forever.

The details and pics of the rifle are available here at

The rifle with me is exactly the same in dark brown walnut stock. I have a Weaver V22A 3-6 straight steel tube scope on it. ( I dont know what such type of scope is called and i read it is 1970's vintage.) It is also my dads and i intend to keep the traditional look as it is.

The debate is endless about which is the best Lever action .22LR, The MARLIN 39A or The WINCHESTER 9422

I have requested another friend to take pictures for me and I will post the same in a few days.

Very nice gun. Thanks for sharing.

I am amazed at the nice condition of the rifle as it is difficult come across a rifle/gun in such a good condition in India.
