Description:

Made in 1890. Fixed front sight with adjustable rear express sight dated 1873. The top of the barrel has the standard two line address reading "WINCHESTER'S-REPEATING-ARMS. NEW HAVEN CT./ KING'S-IMPROVEMENT-PATENTED-MARCH 29. 1866. OCTOBER 16. 1860." One line model designation on the upper tang and serial number on the lower. Saddle ring mounted on the left side of the receiver. Third model with integral dust cover rail. Smooth forearm held on by a single barrel band and straight grip stock with an iron carbine buttplate with compartment in the butt for a three piece cleaning rod.

Rating Definition:

Refinished, with an artificial mixed brown patina over most of the surface. The magazine tube has turned a plum brown, and a mixed brown and blue patina on the barrel and receiver, with original blue in the protected areas and on the dust cover rail. The stock has been repaired, with a few small areas of fill-in, some cracking at the wrist and butt, and some light pressure dents and shrinkage. The action is excellent. The rear sight leaf is broken.
