This Stevens manufactured sixth variation receiver is for the Favorite single shot falling block rimfire rifle and is in very good condition exhibiting a grayish brown patina with light surface rust specks and possibly a few faint specks of pitting. This is the only part on the Favorite rifle that is tracked as a firearm therefore it will need to be transferred through a dealer. Receivers do not qualify as a C&R based on BATFE's guide lines.

Note: Sixth variation receivers will have (1) the round cut frame, (2) the longer 3 3/16" long lower tang with the threaded hole for the 2nd variation mainspring screw, (3) the longer 5/8" long rectangular opening for the trigger, (4) lacking any extractor notch therefore designed for the 2nd variation (aka 6 o' clock) extractor with the wider upper portion, (5) has the threaded hole on the forward belly of the receiver for supporting the lever spring screw.

Related Parts: the following list of parts will normally be found on a Favorite single shot rifle having a sixth variation receiver when it originally left the factory new: 2nd variation mainspring, 2nd variation mainspring screw, 2nd variation hammer, 2nd variation (aka 6 o' clock) extractor with the wider upper portion, 2nd variation link, 2nd variation breech block, 2nd variation lever (no bushing or plunger system), lever spring, lever spring screw and a 3rd variation butt stock with a hard rubber butt plate. Additionally, this sixth variation receiver is the only variation we see with the barrel that has the threaded adjusting ring attached at its rear portion which is located between the barrel and receiver and can be adjusted to remove any wiggle or play between these two major parts.

Proof: Sixth variation receivers have been diss-assembled and thoroughly observed by CFN Parts to make the above conclusions with the following serial numbers on the lower tang: D30, K15 and L55.
