I found an old ad from a 1958 gun book that advertised this rifle as an "Anschutz Junior Varminter". They made a carbine version with the full length stock and this one referred to as a "Rifle". I don't think the 1416 designation started until a year or two later even though they were essentially the same gun. I really like learning about older guns and things that have mostly passed into obscurity! The original $58 price today would be about $530!
