Manufactured in 1939. Winchester made only about 5,700 Model 65s between 1933 and 1947 (with a lesser percentage of these chambered for 25-20 WCF). Standard barrel and tang markings with the Winchester factory proof on top of the receiver and barrel at the breech. Equipped with a hooded ramp front sight and elevation adjustable rear sight. Mounted on a smooth forearm and pistol grips stock with metal end cap and checkered steel buttplate.

Excellent. The rifle retains 95% plus original blue finish showing some high edge wear on the buttplate and an area of light gray pitting present on top of the barrel. The wood is also excellent with a some scattered minor handling marks and two small holes on the underside of the buttstock (likely from a now removed sling swivel base). Mechanically excellent.
