Winchester mdl 36, mfd 1920-27. Looks like a 1900-02-04 22 rifle. 9mm rimfire. If Anschutz or anyone else is making one currently, I WANT ONE!. Any info on current ammo dimensions/availability? Ammo in 9mm here in U.S. is a collector item. Bill Visit the rec.hunting and rec.hunting.dogs FAQ Home Page at: http://sportsmansweb.com/hunting/

Here in the UK, 9mm garden guns, rook rifles, whatever you want to call ‘em do crop up from time to time and someone recently confirmed at uk.rec.shooting.game that the ammo (which is a shotgun load in a rimfire case) is still available new – but it’s not cheap – a bit like .410 but worse. If they’re available in the UK, they simply must be available over your side of the pond. Having said that, most interest lies in little old guns, sometimes hammer guns, which pop up in general auctions and the likes.

I’ll see what i can dig up. I saw the brochure on one at my local gunsmith, and fell for it. What I remember is that it is an "Anschutz" rifle (I’m not to certain of the spelling, but it is German) The cartrigdes are about 3-5 cm long, and 9 mm wide, and contains 12,5 grams of lead. The shotgun itself is a small one, verymuch resembeling a .22 Long Rifle. It is used for shooting small birds in th fruityards, since the lead grains are so small they will not destroy flowers/fruit. It is not made for Links (left handed) shooters, only right. Also it is suposet to have about similar recoil as a .22LR. This is not confirmed, only based on rumors and explanations. Since I dont know where you live, I can’t tell you how to get one, but here in Norway, you can order it from your local gunsmithts.

The only reference to 9mm shotgun I’ve heard is from my uncle. He said he had one in the Army Air Corp and they used them to shoot birds inside the hangers. I’d love to know if somebody is making them now! Visit the rec.hunting and rec.hunting.dogs FAQ Home Page at: http://sportsmansweb.com/hunting/

Now mostly regarded as a curiosity in the UK and commonly known as a "Garden gun". Rimfire cartridges, low range and retort and, I would have thought, zero recoil. Suitable for knocking pigeons off the chimney without destroying your roof! Pete www.the-proof-reader.co.uk "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
