Manufactured in 1927, this takedown example is chambered in the rare 25-35 caliber. Beaded blade front sight and elevation adjustable rear sporting sight. The receiver is fitted with a Lyman peep sight. Standard model, trademark, nickel steel and caliber marking on the left rear of the barrel with the two-line address on the opposite. The Winchester oval proof is marked on top of the barrel and receiver at the breech, standard three-line upper tang marking and the serial number is marked on the underside of the receiver. Half magazine tube, blue finish and mounted with a smooth walnut forearm with steel end cap and straight grip stock with a steel serrated shotgun buttplate.

Fine. The barrel retains 70% thinning original blue finish showing some muzzle wear and several small minor scratches. The forend cap has a smooth mottled brownish gray patina and the takedown ring has been cleaned bright. The receiver retains 40% original blue finish with areas of smooth gray and brown patina. The wood is good with a 6 inch, old repaired crack on the upper left side of the forearm, a minor 3 1/2 inch crack on the right side, a small minor crack on the right side of the stock toe, and overall some scattered minor dents and scratches. The wrist area and underside, rear of the forearm, show moderate wear. The markings are clear. Mechanically excellent.
