Manufactured in 1907 with a tapered barrel equipped with a block mounted beaded blade Lyman front sight, adjustable sporting rear sight, the two-line address and patent marking on top, the two-line nickel steel marking followed by "33 W.C.F." on the left at the breech, "WP" proofs on the barrel and frame at the breech, the three-line model and trademark marking on the upper tang, and the patent marking and serial number on the lower tang.

Fine with 70% plus original blue finish, smooth gray patina on the balance, strong original case colors on the hammer and lever, minor oxidation, and generally minor wear overall indicative of rifle that saw some actual use in the field. The wood is very good and has some mild scattered scrapes and dings, mild wear at the toe which is proud of the metal, and an attractive aged appearance. Mechanically excellent. The Winchester Model 1886 was a popular hunting rifle in the West, and the Lightweight version in .33 W.C.F. would make an excellent woods rifle for deer or black bear.
