Recently acquired a Winchester model 141. Can anyone give me some info on it? I know it has a tube feed mag, unfortunately the feed guide is broke :( Anyone have a manual for it? I already have the schematics. Thanks in advance!

I had one new purchased in 1967. It really was a cheaply made .22 but it always worked. Never had a jam or misfire with it. One thing to watch out for though is that the safety lever is just a very soft steel stamping and can quickly wear to the point that it won't prevent the trigger from firing the rifle. Got to the point where I just carried it without a round in the chamber. If you have a broken magazine tube I don't know any source offhand to replace it. NIB 141's can be had for under $200 sometimes at shows and on the net.
