Manufactured in 1928, with Winchester factory oval proofs on the barrel and receiver at the breech. The two line nickel steel marking and ".30 ARMY" caliber marking are on the upper left of the barrel. The standard two-line address and patent marking is on the left of the receiver, three-line model and trademark on the upper tang, and serial number on the lower tang. It is fitted with a pinned blade front sight and elevation adjustable notch rear sight. It is mounted with a smooth Schnabel tip forearm with ebony insert and straight grip stock with a crescent buttplate.

Very fine, retains 85% plus of the original blue finish with the balance having thinned to a smooth grey patina, primarily on high spots, and extensive flaking mostly visible on the right of the receiver. The wood is also very fine with some scattered light scratches and handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
