ANTIQUE Winchester 1873 Lever Action CARBINE 38 WCF

Third Model SRC Made in 1890

Here we present an antique Winchester 1873 Third Model Lever Action Rifle, made in 1890 in New Haven, Connecticut. The Model 1873 is one of the most iconic of American rifles. Given the moniker “The Gun that Won the West”, the 1873 was there during the Indian Wars and Range Wars of the late 19th century. Cowboys, Natives, settlers, miners, law enforcement, express companies and hunters all found these rifles and carbines useful tools. These rifles made excellent companions to revolvers at the time as they were chambered for the same ammunition, meaning that the user only had to keep one type to feed both guns. The 1873 really was the quintessential Western rifle, handily outpacing all the muzzle-loading and Civil War surplus guns that also made their way to the frontier.

This carbine features a 20-inch round barrel. The front sight is a fixed blade. The rear sight is an elevation adjustable buckhorn. The receiver tang is marked “MODEL 1873”. The barrel is marked “WINCHESTER REPEATING ARMS NEW HAVEN CONN. USA/KINGS IMPROVEMENT PATENTED MARCH 29, 1866, OCTOBER 16, 1860”.

The overall condition is good. This carbine has been refurbished. The markings are mostly clear and legible. The walnut stock is smooth. The bore has good rifling and is clean, with just a bit of mild pitting in the middle. The action is functional, but a bit rough and would benefit from an adjustment.

Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. 

Barrel is 20 inches in length.

Caliber: .38 WCF
