Deluxe Winchester Model 1873 Lever Action Rifle, NVSN, .32-20 cal., 24'' lightly engraved and banded blue barrel, case hardened frame, pistol-grip checkered walnut stock and forend. Condition is very good to fine as semi-professionally restored. Sides of both upper and lower tang show no additional markings when buttstock is removed. Barrel with immersion type bluing, some enhancements to address and patent dates. Front sight is a later replacement. Case hardened frame was done using the cyanide method, and high edges show wear-thru to bright metal. Serial number has been removed during polishing, therefore, we can make no claims as to the originality of any of its features. Buttstock and forend are nicely figured, and pistol grip cap features horn inlaid fleur d'lis detail. Action remains very good, bore is about fine. Est.: $1,200-$1,800. (Antique)
