anyone remember a 'colt colteer ' 22 lever action rifle

[hfcable]

probably made in the 1960s or so. they made 22 lr semiautos and a single shot in 22 magnum, both called 'colteer' but i beleive there was also a lever gun. it was about the same time as mossbergs model 402 lever action 22[ the palomino ]

any one remember or have old gun digests etc that might show such?

come on guys and wow me like you did with the remington lightweight funky colored model 572 22 pump rifles !!

Yes,
But I remember it as being offered in L.R. and Magnum.

Yep, it was the "stagecoach", not the colteer.

Colt never made a .22 levergun.

(Remember the Colt/Winchester agreement after Colt introduced the Burgess levergun & Winchester their DA revolver ? )

After agreeing the Winchester would stick to leverguns & Colt to handguns, in the 1960's Colt made the Colteer I-22 single-shot boltgun & the Colteer/Stagecoach/Coutier semi-auto's.

I think Pete is right.
What I remember was a winchester model 290 or something like that.

[Mescalero]

Correction, Model 250.

All I could find was this link for an '07 auction of a prototype and no pic.

i think that they probably did the usual of advertising the 22 lever gun before they actually made it, then never put it into production. i distinctly recall it being listed and a picture of it somewhere. this is likely the explaination.

one fellow one another board claimed to have had one, and was complaining that his son sold it without his permission.

wish i had seen that one on proxibid , would have tried to snag it.
