Does anyone know the history or origins of 1574 anshulz. 222 . I cant find anything on the net really.
Krico name comes up its definitely anshulz though.
Just want to know the age quality or firearm etc.

Try searching Anschutz instead :lol:

Anschutz 1568
Notes: Unlike other Anschutz sporting rifles, the Model 1568 is built on a Krico 700 action. It has a rollover stock with a swelling pistol grip, and a box magazine. The standard 1568D and 1568St have a standard trigger and a set trigger respectively, and the Model 1574D and St are built on a Krico 600 short action and fire shorter rounds instead.

Anschutz 1574, .222 Remington weighs 2.42 kg and has a 4 shot magazine

So it's a 1574D unless it has a set trigger in which case it's a 1574ST and is built on the Krico 600 short action

Dunno about the 1568, but I have a 1530 in 222 which is the bare bones model and it is excellent build quality.

I have just picked up a 1574 .223, its date stamped 1970 & has a rollover comb & the white plastic spacers on the pistol grip & butt. It has a shiny deep bluing as good as other Anschutz .22 models I have. As you say history is hard to find other than they are based on the Krico 600 action. My .223 has a recoil plate, & appears to be a screw in barrel, unlike Anschutz rifles which generally has pressed & pinned barrels. The timber is pretty good, the checkering clean & well cut. I have yet to fire it, so accuracy is unknown. My magazine follower is dual stamped .222 & .223.

Mate i cant tell you atm its in the shop awaiting registration my deceased grandfather had it so we decided to use the amnesty for what its good for. Registering legal firearms. Should all be going through within few weeks . Its come at some cost so far due to WAPOL insisting we couldnt get a permit to carry it 400kms to my preferred gun shop in perth so we had to have the local shop take control until paperwork comes through. Meaning abother 800 km trip accommodation fuel etc to pick it up.
Me and my partner are hoping itll be all worth it. I dont think it had any plastic at the end of the bolt but definitely a white cover on handgrip end of stock.
It 100..% said anshultz though.
