Description:

Manufactured in 1939 (receiver). This carbine is chambered in 32 Winchester Special. This caliber is not listed in Dean Whitaker's study THE MODEL WINCHESTER 1937-1964. Hooded ramp front sight and filler block in the rear sight dovetail slot on a barrel marked with the Winchester legend followed by "32 W.S." on the left side and the right side has the two line address. The Winchester factory style oval proof is stamped on the left side of the barrel and receiver at the breech. The receiver is tapped for scope mounting at the front and has a Lyman sight (stock inletted). Pre-war safety, polished bolt numbered to gun, cloverleaf receiver tang and sling swivels. The straight comb pistol grip stock features checkering and a checkered steel buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Very fine as professionally refurbished/restored. The carbine retains 98% of the blue finish showing some light thinning (mostly on the receiver). The stock is near mint showing a few light handling marks with crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
