Description:
Early Winchester 1886 SRC SN-50838. Manufactured in 1891. Although rumored to have belonged to Capt. John Hughes, Texas Rangers, it has not been proven to date (that i know of). The old fellow Kansas collector I bought it from told me he bought it from the Round Rock Texas area in the early 1980’s. It has initials CJ carved and a notch cut on both sides of the stock. Saddle ring has been ground off. Great wood to metal fit. In the photo attached, John Hughes is holding what looks like an 1886 saddle ring carbine with the ring stud ground off. Blue on barrel and magazine have mostly turned to brown. Some case hardening still visible on the frame. Very good over all condition. The purchase comes with a full correct box of 40-65 WCF cartridge’s from the late 1890's.. Great collectable gun.
Shipping and Insurance cost will be added to the purchase. Will only ship to the lower 48 states.
minus $400 without the cartridges.
Will consider any reasonable offers.
