Receiver manufactured 1946 per Madis. Barrel has "MODEL 62" marking and Winchester factory oval proof. Includes spring 2008 issue of "The Winchester Collector" which features this rifle and notes the "Model 62" barrel marking as "obviously a mistake made in house by using the wrong roll-die on this Model 61 barrel" (page 19). Provenance: The James Windy Collection

Excellent as fitted with Model 62 barrel with almost all of the original finish, some light edge wear, and some scattered light handling marks on the wood. Mechanically excellent.
