Payment Types Accepted: checks, cashiers/bank check, money order Description:  SUPERB CONDITION, TWO DIGIT SERIAL NUMBER MODEL 53, SCARCE 32-20 CALIBER, WITH FANCIER THAN STANDARD WALNUT, #6X, MADE FIRST YEAR OF PRODUCTION IN 1924. This is one of the best I've seen in a while. Aside from the two digit serial number, this one has better than standard walnut with some nice figure to both the stock and forend. The receiver retains nearly all the deep blue with only one small spot or "scuff"  on the lower right side where it appears the blue is thinned slightly- thumb nail size and a small similar spot on the receiver ring. Even the upper tang shows deep blue as does the barrel. Even the forend cap shows only the lightest of edge wear. Bright exc. bore, exc. wood with tight wood to metal fit. Flat top buckhorn rear sight with elevator bar intact and Marble No.2 blade/ivory bead front sight. Exc. screw heads. The standard caliber for the Model 53 was .25-20 with 16,905 made. Only 4718 were made in .32-20 (from The Winchester handbook by George Madis). About as nice as these come and certainly one of the earliest!   SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes Rifle Caliber: .32-20 Winchester Manufacturer: WINCHESTER Model: MODEL 53 Serial Number: 6X Barrel Length: 22 Condition: EXCELLENT Bore Condition: EXCELLENT
