Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Sears, Roebuck & Company sold a range of sporting goods and recreational equipment under the brand name "J. C. Higgins" from 1908 until 1962. These included bicycles, golf clubs, rifles, shotguns, and revolvers that were well-made and popular with the company's core rural and working-class consumers. Like many other Sears products, the firearms sold under the Sears brand were originally manufactured by major firearm companies. The High Standard Arms produced the Model 20 and the Model 88 revolver.
The J.C. Higgins brand was later replaced by the Ted Williams brand. However, many of the more durable J.C. Higgins products are still available as second-hand items. The brand was named after John Higgins, a Sears employee who worked for the company for his entire career and was Vice President for a period. He was born in Ireland and moved to the United States in his late teens and began working for Sears in 1898. Although he had no middle name, Sears Co. presented the idea of labeling their sporting goods line with his name and saw it more presentable labeling the brand as J.C. Higgins. Higgins retired as head bookkeeper in 1930 and died in 1950. It is unknown whether he had expertise in sporting goods or sports.
The J.C. Higgins 103.228 is a bolt-action magazine-fed rifle that is identical to the Marlin Model 80. It is chambered for .22 Short, Long, and Long Rifle and features a blue finish, a 22" barrel, a blade front with a U-notch rear, a grooved receiver that allows you to mount an optic, and a classic smooth walnut stock that completes the package.
