Payment Types Accepted: checks, cashiers/bank check, money order Description: EARLY 1873 2ND. MODEL .44-40 ROUND BARREL RIFLE, #62XXX, MADE 1880, this one came out of a Texas estate and has a nice "attic" condition look to it, the receiver has an attractive aged brown patina with original dust cover intact- some traces of old rust wiped off years ago, but never buffed or steel wooled, barrel and mag tube have dark and dull aged blue mixing brown and plum, original sights, surprisingly nice screws, mellow uncleaned brass lifter, bore is dark and a bit rough with visible rifling and definitely could use a good oil soaking and brushing, butt stock appears a bit dry and weathered with good wood to metal fit and only a beginning of a short crack coming back from the upper tang on the left side- minor and goes nowhere- forend shows some honest saddle wear and is also weathered with three small short cracks on the left side coming back from the forend cap- again, minor. In all, a nice early frontier 1873 .44-40 with a good appearance and no doubt lots of history! SOLD Antique: Yes Manufacturer: Winchester Model: 1873 2nd.
