Dovetailed replacement blade front sight and adjustable rear sporting sight. The barrel, magazine tube and loading gate were finished blue.

Rating Definition:

Very good plus. The steel surfaces have a smooth dark brown patina. The fine receiver has a natural untouched attractively aged patina. The wood is fine with some scattered minor dents, dings and scratches. The markings are clear. The action is excellent. A very nice representative Winchester Model 1866 Lever Action Rifle.
