Description:
FULL DELUXE 1886 EXTRA LIGHTWEIGHT, SOLID FRAME RIFLE IN CALIBER .33 WCF, #141XXX, MADE 1906. This is a beautiful rifle with fabulous grained reddish-brown walnut checkered pistol grip stock and checkered forend with equally fancy grained walnut. Pistol grip has the correct hard rubber Winchester embossed grip cap, correct hard rubber shotgun butt plate is also Winchester marked and in excellent condition. Heavy “piano finish” on the wood, checkering is still fairly sharp with a little more wear to the bottom of the forend- but all distinct. Retains nearly all the blue on the correct 24” barrel with only some light thinning from age. Receiver shows good blue on the side panels with thinning/mixing gray toward the middle section and on the bottom, exc. deep blue on the bolt, screw heads look unturned. Flat top buckhorn rear sight with Lyman “Jack” front sight- half moon with ivory bead in correct short ramp. Excellent tight wood to metal fit, tight action, exc. bright bore, deep blue on the correct half magazine. The .33 WCF was the only smokeless powder round introduced for the Model 1886 in 1902. It is simply the .45-70 case necked down to accept .338” bullets. It was considered the most powerful tubular fed lever action round until the .348 WCF was introduced for the Model 71 in the 1930s. A deluxe special order rifle that was used, but taken care of. Seldom seen with wood this fancy. Were I a well heeled rifleman in 1906...this is exactly the rifle I'd order from Winchester!
