Description:
A fine Winchester Model 61 .22 S, L, & LR Slide Action with a Walnut Stock and a 24 inch blued barrel and tubular magazine, steel butt plate.and sling swivel studs. The barrel is bright and shiny with sharp lands. This rifle is scope ready with Weaver style mounts installed. However, the iron sights are included as well if you wnat to go that route. This rifle is in great condition; both wood and metal well above 95%. This classic Winchester rifle has been well taken care of, a really nice specimen. The pictures tell all.
"The Model 61 Hammerless Rifle was introduced in 1932. It utilizes a streamlined receiver with the ejection port on the right side. When the forearm is pulled to the rear, a single action bar pulls the bolt down, unlocking it from a mortise in the top of the receiver. As the bolt travels to the rear, it extracts and ejects the spent cartridge case and cocks the hammer. As the bolt moves rearward, the next cartridge in the magazine enters the receiver and rests on the cartridge lifter.
Pulling the forearm forward activates the cartridge lifter, aligning a cartridge so it can be chambered by the forward-moving bolt. As the bolt goes into battery, the rear is cammed up by the action bar, locking it into the receiver mortise.
The magazine tube is loaded by rotating the knurled tip of the inner tube and pulling it forward, exposing a loading gate on the bottom of the outer tube. Cartridges are inserted base first and then the inner tube is pushed back in, whereupon a spring-loaded follower inside of it pushes the cartridges to the rear where they can be picked up by the lifter.
A pushbutton safety is located at the front of the trigger guard, and a bolt release catch is at the rear, left side. All Model 61s are takedown rifles, and unscrewing a large-headed, knurled, captive screw at the left rear of the receiver allows the barrel receiver/stock trigger unit assemblies to be separated for cleaning or storage."
