Description:

Manufactured in 1939. Hooded ramp front and elevation adjustable rear sights, standard Winchester markings including the factory oval proof on the barrel and receiver, early receiver correctly tapped for sight/scope mounting, pre-war safety, polished bolt re-numbered to gun, sling swivels and checkered pistol grip stock with checkered steel buttplate. The reproduction Winchester factory style box is re-numbered to the gun. Comes with a Model 70 brochure.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. The barrel and receiver retain 95% plus of the original blue showing some minor high edge wear, limited minor scratches and some thinning to a brown on the bolt handle. The trigger guard is refinished with most remaining. The very fine reoiled stock shows the slightest handling marks and crisp checkering overall. Mechanically excellent. The box is fine with most of the labels remaining and a faded end label.
