AUTOMATIC RIFLE 
This rifle reloads itself, the recoil doing 
the work. It is only necessary to pull 
the trigger for each shot, which places 
reloading, as well as firing, under 
control of the trigger finger. Another 
desirable and distinctive feature of this 
rifle is that it shoots inexpensive, rim fire, 
smokeless powder cartridges which are 
clean to handle, being loaded with Win¬ 
chester Greaseless Bullets. This rifle is 
a light-weight, ten-shot, take-down re¬ 
peater, that is easy to load and easy 
to take down and clean. There is 
nothing complicated about it, being 
simple, safe and reliable. Ask your 
dealer to show you one. It’s iust
