Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes
Photograph article dated March 9, 1961 partially reads, "The American market has one in the Remington .22 smooth bore model 510 - A bolt action shotgun, but the Germans have gone us one better with their new 6 mm Anshutz, selling for $20. The four pound, 39-inch long shotgun shoots the Sinoxid, Flobertpatronen 6 mm (.22 caliber) one-inch shotshell. The little paper spitters contain approximately 60 number 12 pellets... The idea of this shotgun fits the Continental thinking in terms of game conservation. Small shot for small game. Dove and other light birds fit this classification." Al Scribner holds .22 shotshell.
