Desirable Winchester Model 1866 Third Model Lever Action Musket

Manufactured in 1870, it has the correct 27 inch round barrel with the magazine tube that stops about 2 3/4 inches from the muzzle allowing this musket to have a full 17 round capacity. The top of the barrel is marked with the two-line address/King's improvement patent dates. It has the third pattern receiver with the block serial number located on the lower tang directly behind the trigger, the standard musket style rear sight graduated to 800 yards and a fixed blade front sight on a square base. It is mounted with a smooth straight grain American walnut 3/4 length forearm and straight grip stock with sling swivels and brass buttplate with compartment containing a four piece cleaning rod. Approximately 14,000 of these Muskets were manufactured.

Rating definitionVery good. The metal surfaces have a smooth dark brown patina. The receiver has an aged patina. The reoiled wood is also very good with some minor dents, dings and scratches. The barrel markings are legible. The action is fine.
