Description:
****SOLD**** The brainchild of John M. Browning in 1895, the Winchester Model 1895 was the first lever action rifle with a box magazine to be successful. The box magazine and strong action of the Model 1895 allowed this weapon to be chambered in the powerful smokeless powder cartridges which were just developed at that time, and permitted the use of pointed spitzer bullets which could not be loaded on top of each other in a tube magazine. The Model 1895 was produced from 1896 to 1940, with over 425,000 produced. It was both a commercial and military success, with the U.S. and Russian Governments purchasing 1895's for their militaries. During the long production run of the Winchester Model 1895 there were multiple variations made and they are very collectible today. This example is a scarce 1895 takedown rifle model chambered in the 35 WCF cartridge. It is serial number 73230 which makes it's date of production 1915. This 1895 has a nice honest look to it with some desirable features such as shotgun butt, takedown (very few produced) and chambered in the potent and desirable 35 WCF. The barrel has a bright bore with strong rifling but shows minor frosting throughout. This rifle is in excellent mechanical condition and has no modifications.The takedown assembly and action on this Winchester is still smooth and locks up very tight. While this rifle has apparently been carried around quite a bit over the years, it appears to have been shot very little. The internals are still super tight without any slop in them from being worn. The original Walnut stock set is in great shape, with no modifications and most of its original finish in place. Both the buttstock and forearm are free from cracks or repairs, and just show minor handling marks and wear without any major dents, gouges, or damage. Everything on this Winchester Model 1895 rifle works 100% like it did when it left the factory, and it should be a great addition to any collection and a lot of fun to shoot at the range.
