One of only 5,704 manufactured from 1941 to 1947 with standard markings including Winchester factory oval proofs on the barrel and receiver at the breech. Fitted with ramped and hooded beaded blade front and elevation adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sights, and a non-factory sling swivel soldered on the bottom of the barrel. Import mark on underside of receiver. Smooth forearm and pistol grip stock with checkered shotgun buttplate and two holes in the bottom of the stock where a sling swivel was previously mounted.

Fine, retains 80% plus of the original blue finish with the balance having thinned to a smooth grey patina, primarily on edges and high spots. The wood is very good with some scattered minor dings, scratches, and scuffs, along with the sling swivel holes mentioned above. Mechanically excellent.
