This beautiful set of Winchester Model 1895s pays tribute to the 100th Anniversary, Safari Centennial (1909-2009), of President Theodore Roosevelt’s Grand African Safari. Theodore Roosevelt referred to the Model 1895 in .405 Winchester as his “Big Medicine” for African lion. The set of .405 rifles includes a Model 1895 Custom Grade and a Model 1895 High Grade. The 1895 Custom Grade has goldtone embellishments of African big game animals on a blued receiver plus gold appointments on the lever and muzzle and features a Grade III/IV walnut stock with fine-cut checkering on the butt stock and forearm. The 1895 High Grade rifle has gold tone embellishments of African big game animals on a silver nitride receiver and has a Grade II/III walnut stock with checkering. Both rifles sport Roosevelt’s signature on the lever, a buckhorn rear sight and a marble, gold-bead, front sight. The receivers are drilled and tapped for scope mounting, have 24” barrels and are both 42” in length. Each rifle weighs eight pounds. These rifles are limitededition with special matching serial numbers. The rifles come with a Theodore Roosevelt collector’s package and a deluxe canvas and leather, double-gun case.
