Trying to find the history and origins of the family rifle: "Ranger Model 35"

 

Found a couple references and visuals on gunbroker:

It's in better shape than both of those.

 

I've found speculation that it's a Savage Arms 52B, made between '33 and '37, for distribution through Sear n Roebuck catalogs as a Ranger.... but nothing confirmed.

Check out the pics in that thread and see if any of them look like what you have.

 

From what I'm reading, Ranger was a brand name used by Sears back in the day, and while it's most likely a Stevens, there are chances that it could be a Mossberg or Savage also.

 

What info are you specifically looking for?
