I recently got this rifle with Lovell's name on the barrel. I "know" him by reputation as a metalsmith, and this work is well done. The stock is 40's style varmint but well done, and I wonder if he did wood work too. The catalog called this rifle a 22 Savage HP which is clearly in error. It's almost certainly a 219 Zipper which I'll verify soon by firing. Who would have been a likely barrel maker for Lovell? The receiver is quite nicely engraved and signed H. Hilton. Any information on him would be helpful.
