Manufactured in 1912. Features a W. F. Sheard blade front sight, rear sight filler block and a rear adjustable Lyman peep sight. The top of the barrel ahead of the rear sight filler block is marked with the two-line address/1894 patent date and "38-55" on left side barrel flat at the breech. The top of the barrel and receiver at the breech are marked with the Winchester oval proof. The upper tang marking is covered by the tang sight and the serial number is marked on the bottom of the frame. All blue finish with full magazine and casehardened frame, hammer, trigger and lever. Mounted with smooth walnut forearm with a metal forend cap and pistol grip stock with a hard rubber Winchester grip cap and shotgun butt with a checkered steel buttplate.

Very good. The barrel and magazine retain 60% of the faded original blue finish with a few areas of mottled brown patina and some scattered scratches and dings. The frame, hammer, trigger and lever are showing a smooth gray patina overall. The markings are clear. The reoiled wood is good with some minor scattered scratches, dings, and pressure dents. Mechanically excellent.
