Description:

Manufactured in 1937. The rifle is in a scarce .22 Long Rifle configuration with an octagon barrel, which Winchester offered from 1932-1946. The upper left barrel flat is marked with the Winchester proof steel, model, trademark, and caliber markings, while the upper right has the standard two-line address/patent marking. It is fitted with beaded blade front sight, Marble's filler in the rear dovetail, and a Marble's peep sight mounted on the upper tang. Mounted with an 11-groove slide handle and smooth pistol grip stock with a checkered steel buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Extremely fine, retains 85% plus of the original blue finish with some light wear on the bottom of the barrel and magazine from operation of the slide handle. The reoiled wood is very fine with a few scattered minor dings. Mechanically excellent.
