Manufactured in the 1920s and subsequently modified, with standard markings including Winchester factory oval proofs on the barrel and receiver at the breech. The left side of the modified barrel is marked with the two-line model, caliber, and trademark. The upper tang has the three-line model and trademark information and the serial number is on the bottom of the receiver. It is fitted with a Marble pinned beaded blade front sight, folding ladder rear sight, and a saddle ring on the left of the receiver. It is fitted with a unique bayonet that is secured to the period shortened barrel and magazine with two barrel bands on either side of the front sight and is marked "WRA", "23", and numbered "884" to match the gun. The drop point blade of the bayonet is 7 1/4 inches long and is unsharpened, having the appearances of an unknown prototype test fitment. Winchester carbines fitted with a bayonet are known to have been used in the period by big game hunters. Also included is a Cody Firearms records office request that states no records are available for this carbine. Provenance: The Brandhorst Collection

Fine, retains most of the period refinished blue with some scattered light pitting visible beneath the finish and some light muzzle wear and light wear from the bayonet bands. The wood is also fine with some scattered minor handling marks throughout. Mechanically excellent. The bayonet shows a cold blue/artificial grey patina and crisp markings.
