VERY RARE WINCHESTER HOTCHKISS CUT-AWAY 2ND MODEL RIFLE
Description:
This cut-away sporting rifle was part of a collection of personally assembled and owned guns by the late 'Lieutenant George B. Aldee'. He was a very colorful individual-a highly decorated Civil War officer. Later on, he worked for Winchester as a sales representative. He was quite instrumental in the development of the Hotchkiss rifle. He won the 1882 Creedmore rifle matches. This gun is very well documented with numerous letters; some of them coming from individuals such as Bennett, the Vice President of Winchester, in regards to his shooting at Creedmore. Overall gun is in near excellent condition with 75-80% original nickel which is flaking and turning a very mellow patina coloration. Original semi-deluxe stock is excellent retaining most original varnish, original sights, fine bore. Very interesting gun; guaranteed 100% all original and complete with Factory Letter of Authenticity from the Buffalo Bill Historical Society listing it as a nickeled sporting rifle, "sectionalized" which would mean that it's a cut-away rifle. Quite unique, especially with the extensive paperwork and documents that accompany it. (Photographed with a Hotchkiss carbine.)
