Description:
1920 Lettered WINCHESTER Model 1895 .30-06 SPRG Lever Action CARBINE C&R
Post-WORLD WAR I Era Repeating Rifle Chambered in .30-06
Here we present a C&R Winchester Model 1895 lever action repeating carbine in .30-06, manufactured in 1920 in New Haven, Connecticut. The letter confirms the serial number application date of September 4, 1920. The Model 1895 was the first Winchester rifle to feature a box magazine located underneath the action instead of the tubular magazine design, which had remained fundamentally unchanged from the Winchester 1866. This allowed the rifle to safely chamber military and hunting cartridges with pointed bullets. The M1895 was also the last of the lever-action rifles to be designed by John Moses Browning and featured a rear locking bolt as in his previous designs dating back to the Winchester 1886. The M1895 was the strongest lever-action rifle Winchester had produced, designed to handle the increased pressures generated by the more powerful smokeless powder cartridges entering common use at the time of its introduction.
These rifles were favored by late-19th and early-20th Century hunters the likes of Teddy Roosevelt, Martin and Osa Johnson, Charles Cottar, and Stewart Edward White. These rifles and carbines were also popular with the Texas and Arizona Rangers.
This carbine features a saddle ring, Williams receiver-mounted peep sight, and a .30-06 chambering.
The overall condition is very good. Original blue preserved on the receiver. Mostly a gray patina on the barrel. Strong action. The bore is bright with deep rifling. This example sports a solid stock with a rubber butt pad.
