Description:

Manufactured in 1935. The rifle is in a scarce .22 Long Rifle configuration with an octagon barrel, which Winchester offered from 1932-1946. It has blade front, and adjustable rear sporting sights. The upper left barrel flat is stamped with the Winchester legend ending in "-.22 LONG R.-," and the factory oval proof is on the barrel and receiver at the breech. Mounted with a 11-groove walnut forearm and smooth pistol grip stock with checkered steel buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Excellent with 90% plus original finish remaining, showing some very mild edge wear and normal cycling wear on the left barrel flat, magazine tube and slide rod. There are a few very minor scratches on the receiver. The wood is also excellent with a few scattered minor dents and dings. The markings are crisp and clear. The action is excellent.
