Who had owned a Winchester model 69A? Need some history on this rimfire.
Well i picked one of these rimfire rifle up. It's in decent shape for a 22. I fell in love with it. Love the magazine release. One of my buddies dad's old 22 he had. He passed not to long ago. Just wanting to know the basics, if there is any. I looked up this model when he told me he mite sell it. Sounds like it sorta of a collectors rimfire. That's why I'm asking you fellas and Ma'am (pretty sure there's a few lady members here) gots cool to me scope rings and i believe a old weaver scope on it.

I bought a used one at the local hardware store in 1960 when I was 13. Came with a Weaver 4X scope. Shot a bunch of ground hogs over a couple of summers. Still have it. Unfortunately the scope got trashed when I loaned it out one summer. The scope mount is for 3/4" tube, so that kind of limits the options.

They make rings for the dovetail receiver that takes 1" scopes.
I have one on my 69.
I still shoot mine on a regular basis, even with all my other .22's
