Description:
Rare Winchester Model 1873 in 38 WCF caliber with a 22" round barrel and full length magazine tube. This rifle also has the shorter length forearm that is correct with the shorter than standard length barrel. The receiver still has considerable original blue remaining with the rest a plum coloration.  Barrel and mag tube are a dark blue/plum color. Bore is good with a couple of pits. Crisp action. Good fitting wood. Stock has a couple of "achievement" marks on the comb as well as the usual dings scratches and mars that you would get from carrying this rifle for over 130 years. The gun has good eye appeal, and is in a rare caliber and configuration. This Winchester was made in 1884.
