Description:
Guns Listing ID: 578860
Step into the aisle of classic American sporting rifles with this Winchester Model 1886 chambered in .45-70 Government. The 1886’s proven, strong locking-block action and tasteful lines are the foundation here — but what makes this piece truly stand out are the hand-engraved wildlife panels that wrap the receiver.
On the left side: a striking scene of bears and a moose, rendered with fine detail and a bold composition that commands attention. On the right side: an imposing bear over an animal (as pictured/inscribed), balanced with tasteful scrollwork and framing that highlights the artwork without overpowering the rifle’s original silhouette. The engraving appears professionally executed and compliments the rifle’s metal and wood tones.
This rifle is in unfired condition — the bore, mechanics, and metal show no evidence of shooting — making it ideal for collectors who want a preserved example of a lever-action classic with custom wildlife artistry. It does not come in its original factory box; it will be shipped/transferred in a secure case appropriate for a collectible firearm.
