Description:
VERY SCARCE WINCHESTER MODEL 57 .22 LONG RIFLE BOLT ACTION "TARGET RIFLE" #10XXX, MADE 1928. Introduced in 1926 along with the "sporter" version Model 56, only a little over 17,000 of these were made until discontinued during the Great Depression in 1936. Interestingly, only about 2500 of these were made annually until about 1932 when production fell off significantly. After that, because of the dire economic conditions in the U.S. only a few hundred were produced annually until it was totally discontinued. This is a fine example with especially fine stock with original steel butt plate and steel patent marked barrel band. It also retains the original Lyman peep receiver sight as well as small folding leaf rear sight. The barrel blue has aged to an even blue/plum and has a minty bore. The markings are all excellent, the action is crisp and it has the Winchester marked magazine. These are hard to find in unaltered condition with excellent bores.
