Manufactured in 1913. The rifle is fitted with a #3 round barrel with a dovetailed blade front sight. The rear sight has been removed. The barrel is marked with the two line Winchester address ahead of the rear sight slot and the nickel steel/smokeless powder marking near the breech followed by "30 U.S" on the left side. The bottom of the barrel under the forearm is marked "JPP", and "RECHAMBER 53 J.P.P.". The serial number is marked on the lower tang. All blue finish with casehardened crescent buttplate. Smooth forearm with ebony insert and smooth straight grip stock.

Excellent. The barrel retains 98% original blue finish and the receiver retains 95% original blue finish with edge wear, and some scattered minor spotting, dings and scratches. The buttplate has a smooth mottled brown patina. The wood is very good with scattered minor handling marks. The markings are clear and action is excellent. A fine factory rechambered Model 1885 Plain Sporting Rifle.
