Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Mossberg Model 151K is a distinctive and historically significant American rimfire rifle that blends solid post-war craftsmanship with unmistakable Cold War–era styling, making it a standout among mid-20th-century .22s. Introduced in the early 1950s, the 151K is a semi-automatic .22 Long Rifle built on Mossberg’s proven 151 series action, known for its reliability and smooth cycling. What truly sets the 151K apart is its unique military-inspired stock, which features a full-length hardwood fore-end, a ventilated metal handguard over the barrel, and a sturdy front barrel band, giving the rifle a clear M1 Carbine-like appearance that appealed to surplus-minded shooters of the era. The rifle fed from detachable box magazines, typically holding 10 rounds, and was fitted with Mossberg’s excellent S-100 rear peep sight, a micrometer-adjustable aperture sight that provided surprisingly precise accuracy for a sporting .22. A hooded front post completed the sighting system, reinforcing the carbine aesthetic while remaining highly functional. With its steel receiver, blued finish, and quality walnut stock, the 151K exemplified Mossberg’s commitment to producing affordable yet well-made firearms for recreational shooters and small-game hunters. Although production numbers were relatively limited compared to more conventional Mossberg .22 rifles, the 151K has gained a strong following among collectors for its unusual design, solid performance, and nostalgic connection to America’s postwar fascination with military-style arms, making it both a capable shooter and a highly recognizable piece of rimfire history.
