67 is a single shot bolt action Winchester 22. I had the youth model which was also loaned to my Dad's best friend to carry on his raccoon hunts.

Default Winchester Model 67

I'm another who got my Winchester Model 67 in 1951 or 1952, bought mine used from the neighbor for $9. Still have it minus the little stamped safety flipper. My Dad said if you didn't know you pulled the Hammer back you shouldn't be using the gun. Still iron sights on it. Fun gun for a farm boy at the time.

Come to think of it, my older brother used a single shot bolt action .22 for squirrels when we were kids. I had a youth Sears .410 with the side button opener. My brother's bolt action was probably a Sears model, too. We could not afford much beyond the Sears guns when I was a kid. They worked just fine.

My Pop used a J. C. Higgins .22 automatic, the one with the wood wrap around stock (whatever that's called). He was deadly on squirrels. Before I could carry a gun (up to about age 6), I was his "dog" and made the squirrels move to his side of the tree so he could head shoot them. He would only use short hollow point ammo. Try and get that today!
