Winchester 71 .348 W.C.F. SN: 14315
American made, pre-war, lever action rifle with a long tang, standard version, manufactured circa 1938, blued steel, approximately 24" barrel, tunneled ramp front sight, buckhorn rear sight, tube fed, side loading, top ejection, checkered hammer spur, curved oval loop, smooth trigger, checkered metal buttplate, finish is excellent, Walnut pistol grip stocks are complete but show some dings, unmarked scope with Weaver mount. Includes a leather buttpad, Weaver K25 scope, one sealed 20-round box of Winchester .348 Win Silvertip 200 grain expanding bullet ammunition. The Model 71 was never chambered to any cartridge except .348, and the .348 was never factory-chambered to any rifle other than the 71. It was—and remains—a big-game go-to combination. Stock style and barrels differed, but cosmetically and almost mechanically, it is an 1886, although few parts are interchangeable. **NRA Excellent** Modern Firearm
