Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Originally developed following World War I as an economical marksmanship training platform for the U.S. Military, the Springfield M1922 series was designed to match the precise weight, sight picture, and action feel of the primary service rifle, the M1903 Springfield. Built at the historic Springfield Armory in Massachusetts, the M1922 went through several evolutionary upgrades, culminating in the highly refined M1922 M1 (marked M1922MI) and M2 variants. Renowned for their incredible hand-fitted craftsmanship, match-grade heavy barrels, smooth bolt action, and matchless receiver aperture sight setups, these rifles quickly transitioned from military training ranges to civilian NRA Bullseye target matches. Due to their exceptional steel quality and glass-smooth actions, many M1922 rifles were custom sporterized by master gunsmiths into premier custom rimfire sporting arms.
This specific example is an authentic Springfield Armory M1922 M1 bearing serial number 20794. Chambered in .22 LR, it features a 24.5-inch heavy target barrel, high-grade polished blued finish, original Lyman No. 48 micrometer receiver sight, target front blade, flush 5-round Type 2 magazine, and a magnificent custom checkered walnut sporter stock featuring fine hand checkering, pistol grip, and a subtle Monte Carlo cheekpiece. Clear receiver ring roll-markings include "U.S. SPRINGFIELD ARMORY M1922MI. CAL. .22" and serial "20794", while the barrel flank is marked "LONG RIFLE CARTGE ONLY". Preserved in superior overall condition w/ deep mirror-like blued finish coverage, magnificent walnut wood grain, buttery-smooth bolt movement, and a bright, well-defined bore w/ sharp rifling, this custom M1922 M1 is a magnificent centerpiece for collectors of vintage U.S. military or custom rimfire rifles.
