Description:

Manufactured in 1910, this is a rare Trapper's Carbine with a highly desirable 16 inch barrel (no ATF exemption required). These shorter than standard carbines were highly prized in the American West for their firepower in a small and mobile package. The upper left of the barrel is marked with the standard two-line address/patent dates, as well as the caliber marking at the breech. There are Winchester factory oval proofs on the barrel and receiver at the breech. The upper tang has the standard thee-line model and trademark information, while the serial number is on the bottom of the receiver. It is fitted with a pinned German silver blade front sight, replacement three-leaf rear sight, and a saddle ring on the left of the receiver. It is mounted with a smooth forearm and straight grip stock with a carbine buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Good, retaining traces of the original blue finish with the balance mostly a smooth grey patina, a few patches of brown patina, and some scattered light pitting, typical of a gun that was worked as hard as the man that carried it. The wood is also fine with some scattered minor handling marks and an empty sling swivel hole in the bottom of the buttstock. Mechanically excellent.
