Manufactured in 1947. It features dovetailed beaded blade and elevation adjustable sights, the Winchester legend ending in "22 SHORT" on the upper left barrel flat, the Winchester factory oval proof on the barrel and receiver, the added custom roll die "WINCHESTER" marking on the left side of the receiver, gallery style loading port, 17-groove forearm and smooth pistol grip stock with checkered steel buttplate.

Very fine as professionally restored. The rifle retains 99% of the blue finish showing the slightest handling marks. The wood also shows the slightest handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
