ANTIQUE Winchester 1873 Lever Action Rifle 32 WCF

Third Model Made in 1884

Here we present an antique Winchester 1873 Third Model Lever Action Rifle, made in 1884 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 rifle features a 24-inch octagonal barrel. The front sight is a windage adjustable 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 very good. The metal surfaces have a dark brown patina. The markings are clear and legible. The walnut stock is very good for its age. The bore has very good rifling and is clean. The action is excellent. Here is a very nice Winchester 1873.

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

Barrel is 24-5/16 inches in length.
