Winchester Model 1885 Low Wall Single Shot Rifle with Swiss Buttplate

Manufactured in 1893. The top of the #2 barrel has the two line Winchester address and "22 SHORT" at the breech and the serial number and 1879 patent date are on the lower tang. Globe front sight (no insert) and tang peep sight with the rear sight removed (dovetail not filled). Single set trigger and checkered walnut lever grip extension. Mounted on a smooth forearm with ebony insert and straight grip stock with a nickel plated Swiss style buttplate.

ConditionVery good plus. The barrel retains traces of original blue finish otherwise faded to a smooth patina with light spotting overall. The receiver retains traces of original case colors in the protected areas with some light spotting. The wood is very fine with a number of minor handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
