Description:
ANTIQUE SERIAL NUMBER 1892 TAKEDOWN .44-40 ROUND BARREL RIFLE, #75XXX, MADE 1895. These early takedown rifles made before 1899 are few and far between as they were not introduced until 1893 at serial number 27,000. They are especially rare in desirable .44-40 caliber. Of the first 380,000 serial numbers, only 1403 takedowns were manufactured. This one came out of here in Montana and no doubt has lots of adventures associated with it! Barrel and magazine tube show a very aged blue that is mixing heavily brown. Receiver is mostly gray with some aged blue in the rear protected areas and on the loading gate. There is also some good aged blue on the bolt. Tight takedown, correct Winchester small blade front sight with buckhorn rear sight. Fine+ forearm and fine butt stock that shows a few more dings and scratches. Good wood to metal fit. Excellent screws and a fine bore that shows some wear but has good rifling all the way through. With an attractive overall appearance, this is a very difficult to find and desirable combination of antique serial number, .44-40 caliber and takedown feature.
