Manufactured in 1953. Ramped hooded beaded blade front and elevation adjustable rear notch sights, standard barrel markings, and Winchester "WP" proofs on the barrel and receiver at the breech. Smooth forearm with a blue steel end cap, 2/3 length magazine, and smooth pistol grip stock with a checkered steel buttplate.

Excellent. 99% original blue finish remains with some light handling marks. The wood is also excellent with a few small dings, and a slight gap visible at the frame/stock junction. Mechanically excellent.
