This Model 1895 was manufactured in 1905 and is fitted with a beaded blade front sight, rear sight filler block, and a receiver mounted Lyman peep sight. It has nicely figured wood and is chambered for the .405 WCF cartridge beloved by none other than Theodore Roosevelt in his own Model 1895 rifles. Even though Winchester sent Roosevelt and his son Kermit some fifteen crates of various Winchester rifles in different calibers, Roosevelt wrote, "the Winchester 405 is, at least for me personally, the 'medicine gun' for lions." He also used it to take other big and dangerous game including a rhino.
