WINCHESTER M1885 HI-WALL RIFLE IN .32-40, 1893 PRODUCTION
|
|
|
Description :
|
This is a Winchester Model 1885 Hi-Wall Single Shot Rifle chambered for the .32-40 cartridge. This rifle was produced in 1893. It has a No. 4, heavy round barrel, brass Swiss butt plate, vernier tang rear sight, and globe front sight. The barrel has been refinished, but is very well done. All markings remain clear and legible. It retains 99% of this blue. The receiver colors have faded to a nice pewter gray. Traces of the color remain. The stock is a nice even reddish brown with just a few tiny dings. There is a small 2" hairline crack on either side, extending back from the receiver. The Schnabel fore end tip has an ebony or horn inlay. I believe the sights are modern, high quality reproductions. There does appear to be a repair to the trigger plate where the serial number is stamped. The bore and mechanics are excellent. This is a shooter's rifle, but one that displays very well.
