Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The O.F. Mossberg & Sons, Inc. Model 46B(b) is a bolt-action rimfire rifle produced from 1947 to 1949. The Model 46B(b) was chambered for .22 Short, .22 Long, and .22 Long Rifle, and was fed using a full-length tubular magazine located under the barrel. It features a 26-inch blue barrel and a smooth one-piece walnut stock, offering a traditional look. The 46B(b) variant is specifically known for being equipped with the Mossberg S-130 aperture (peep) receiver sight along with a square-notch elevator rear sight, distinguishing it from earlier 46B versions. These rifles were manufactured without serial numbers, as Mossberg did not begin serial-numbering sporting rifles until 1968. The Model 46B(b) is well regarded by collectors today for its sturdy construction, mid-century design features, and its place in Mossberg’s post-war rimfire lineup.
