Sears discontinued the sale of all firearms in 1980
Sears started using the JC Higgins name on firearms in the mid 1940s and discontinued all firearms sales in the 1970s.
The J.C. Higgins brand was used by Sears for hunting and fishing equipment since WWII until 1961 when it was replaced by the Ted Williams brand. There are no records of serial numbers available for the Sears firearms.
Type your answer here... The Sears J.C. Higgins model 44dlm lever action rifle was made by Marlin Firearms Company and is the same as the Marlin Model 57M, chambered for .22WMR (.22 magnum). It was produced between about 1959 to 1969 (?).
The only help that I can give you is that your ted williams (Sears brand) model 100 rifle was made by winchester for sears up to 1978.In that year sears quit selling the ted williams brand name firearms.They quit selling all firearms in 1980.
