Question
do u Know anything about j c higgins model 103.18 sears.
roebuck & company-S-L-LR .22 cal

Answer
Not a lot. JC Higgins was the Sears brand that they contracted out to various manufacturers. However, to my knowledge, the only company that made a .22 bolt rifle that had an adjustable magazine so that it could take Short, Long, or Long Rifle was Mossberg, so my bet is that that is the mfg. As you know, there no longer is a JC Higgins, and Mossberg no longer makes that rifle.

Expertise

I CAN answer questions related to defensive use of firearms, tactics, prudent modifications of firearms, utility of certain types of firearms. My greatest knowledge is in the area of handguns. PLEASE READ BEFORE SENDING QUESTIONS: I CAN NOT identify antique guns or those that are old and out-of-production. I CAN NOT tell you the value of your firearms. I CAN NOT tell you the history of your guns. I CAN NOT supply information about cheap, inherently unsafe firearms (e.g. Jimenez, Jennings, Lorcin).
