This classic Winchester Model 1873 rifle was manufactured in 1882 and features a round barrel with a German silver blade front sight, adjustable sporting rear sight, the standard markings (correctly no caliber markings), and a smooth forearm and straight wrist stock with a crescent buttplate.

Fine with 40% plus original blue finish, smooth gray and brown patina on the balance, much of the original case colors on the hammer and lever, loose dust cover, attractive aged patina on the brass elevator, and mild overall wear typical wear of a working gun from the American West. The revarnished wood is very good and has some mild dings and scratches appropriate to a frontier gun. Aside from the loose dust cover, the rifle is mechanically fine. This is a solid representative example of "The Gun that Won the West" with some attractive "frontier" character.
