Winchester 1873 .44-40 SN: 67626
Second model, circa 1881. King's-Improvement 24 5/16" octagon bbl, full length tube magazine, blade front sight with set screw, Marbles flip-up adjustable rear sight, dust cover, smooth walnut forend and straight grip shoulder stock with crescent metal trapdoor buttplate. The rifle has been cleaned and is in-the-white showing some old pin prick pitting on the receiver & some light emerging surface rust on the barrel towards the muzzle. Markings are very good with the exception of the caliber stamp. Action is smooth, bore is good other than a large dark ring approximately 1" from the muzzle, dust cover shows tooling marks & a crack, and the wood stocks are fair as the buttstock is slightly shrunken and the forend has two large losses along the side or has been modified in that fashion for a better grip. Condition is good. ***Antique Firearm***
