Description:
The design origins of the Model 63 goes back to 1901 from a patent dated 1901 by T.C. Johnson, a longstanding employee of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company.[1] The rifle that became of this patent was the Model 1903,[2] the first semi-automatic firearm commercially sold by the company and was also the first semi-automatic rifle design that was offered for commercial sale in North America.[3] The rifle enjoyed modest commercial success.
In the 1930s, however, the Model 1903 fell out of popularity mainly due to its use of a proprietary cartridge which was the only cartridge it could use for it to chamber properly. As such, a replacement had to be made; this replacement was named the Model 63.
The Model 63 enjoyed immediate commercial success, with steady sales throughout the 1930s. Production ended briefly in the 1940s as Winchester refocused their production lines towards the war effort; production resumed in 1946 after World War II had ended. The rifle was quietly discontinued in 1958 after production was getting increasingly expensive, with most other companies migrating to cheaper methods of production. Some 174,692 were produced over its twenty-five-year production run.
This rifle is being sold “as is” has been test fired with 40 Grain 22L works as it should, the bore and rifling is clean and fully intact overall condition would be 95-98% condition. The rifle would be a great addition to your collection or to use for plinking or hunting.
