Casull model 290 semiauto in .22lr. Burl Walnut stocks, blue finish, 165 round pan magazine. This is a very rare and unique rifle designed and manufactured by Richard Casull, who also brought us the .454 Casull pistol. The Casull Model 290 is similar in appearance to the American 180 as the 290 round drum magazine is mounted on top of the receiver in a similar manner. It was one of the most expensive guns of its time (mid 1960's) selling for around $1060.00 at that time. Only 87 pieces were manufactured and all are hand made with quality that compares with a Colt Thompson, the receiver is machined out of a solid block of steel, all parts are hand fitted, built to last forever. The firearm fires from an open bolt with the bolt face striking the .22lr rim fire cartridge on two edges for positive ignition. At the time it was a popular gun to present to foreign dignitaries. Ferdinand Marcos of the Philippines owned one. I believe that it is the highest capacity drum magazine (290 rounds) ever produced. An extremely rare and unique firearm. It's concept lives on today as the American 180 submachine gun.This rifle is truly a piece of art, from the fine machning and fit to the beautiful walnut stock. It breaks down into 4 parts to store compactly. There is one ding in the butt stock on the under side of the grip it is shown in the last photo, other than this one mark it is blemish free.
