Lot 40: Winchester Model 1895 Lever Action Rifle in Scarce .38-72 WCF

Manufactured in 1904. The barrel has dovetail blade and elevation adjustable sights and "38-72 W.C.F." on the left side at the breech. The left side of the receiver has the two-line address/patent dates marking, and the upper tang has the three-line model/trade mark information. Mounted with a smooth Schnabel forearm with ebony forend insert and straight grip stock.

Very fine. The rifle retains 85% plus original blue finish with the balance thinning to a gray. Traces of faded original case colors remain on the buttplate. The wood is also very fine with some minor pressure dents and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
