c1902 m WINCHESTER Model 1895 .30-40 KRAG Rifle JMBrowning Rough Riders C&R
1902 Made Repeating Rifle in .30 US
Here we present a C&R Winchester Model 1895 Rifle manufactured in 1902 in New Haven, Connecticut, and chambered in .30 US, also known as the .30-40 Krag. Designed by none other than John Moses Browning, the Model 1895 was the first Winchester rifle to feature a box magazine located underneath the action instead of the tubular magazine design, which had remained fundamentally unchanged from the Winchester 1866. This allowed the rifle to safely chamber military and hunting cartridges with pointed bullets. The M1895 was also the last of the lever-action rifles to be designed by John Moses Browning and featured a rear locking bolt as in his previous designs dating back to the Winchester Model 1886. The M1895 was the strongest lever-action rifle Winchester had produced, designed to handle the increased pressures generated by the more powerful smokeless powder cartridges entering common use at the time of its introduction.
It was a great favorite of big game hunters of the late-19th and early-20th Centuries including Theodore Roosevelt. It was also the 1895 that many of his men were carrying when the Rough Riders took San Juan Hill. Law enforcement agencies such as the Texas and Arizona Rangers also liked them and purchased them privately.
The overall condition is good. This one has an old refinish with a modified front sight and replacement butt plate. The action is excellent. Bright, nicely rifled bore. This example sports a solid stock with an average amount of handling.
