1936 WINCHESTER Mod 62 SLIDE ACTION .22 SHORT TAKEDOWN RIFLE Round Barrel
Pre-World War II Squirrel, Rabbit, and Gallery Gun!
Here we present a Winchester Model 62 Slide Action Rifle manufactured in 1936 in New Haven, Connecticut. With its roots dating back to the 1890s, the Model 62 is considered the best in a long line of .22 caliber pump action rifles. These handy little guns taught many a young shooter how to use a rifle and proved to be the weapon of choice to plink tin cans or spin the pinwheels at carnival shooting galleries on a warm summer day. This little rifle was basically just an update to the Model 1890 designed by John Moses Browning that came out 72 years earlier in which 1.6 million had been made by 1932. The Model 62 was also designed as a “Takedown” rifle. An oversized screw on the rear of the receiver, when removed, allowed the gun to break apart into two pieces for cleaning, storage, and transport.
These guns were durable and well liked, though they did not see the numbers that the 1890 did. This is largely in part because the new semi-auto rimfires rifles were similarly priced, and competitors like Colt had gathered a good bit of the market. Overall, 409,000 Model 62s were made before Winchester pulled the plug of the handy little guns in 1959.
The overall condition is very good+. Original blue. The action is excellent. The bore is shiny bright with sharp rifling. This example sports a solid stock all around. A great old Winchester!
