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.

Very fine. The rifle retains nearly 97% original blue finish showing moderate cycling wear. The wood is also very fine showing a 1-inch long hairline crack near the buttplate heel and some scattered very minor pressure dents and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
