Description:
Offered here is a classic Winchester Model 1873, serial number 36012, an early-production example of the iconic "Gun That Won the West." Based on the serial range, this rifle was manufactured circa late 1879 to early 1880, placing it firmly in the frontier era of Winchester's most famous lever-action. This rifle features the traditional octagon barrel and full-length magazine tube, paired with a smooth-working lever action. The wood shows an attractive aged patina with visible grain and honest handling marks consistent with its age, while the metal retains a pleasing, even brown patina. A period-correct front sight and checkered steel buttplate are present, adding to its authentic character. The chambering is not marked, which is not uncommon on earlier Model 1873 rifles and can be verified through inspection or the included factory Cody letter, which accompanies the firearm and provides historical documentation direct from Winchester records—a significant value-add for collectors. Overall, this is a highly desirable antique Winchester with documented provenance, solid condition, and undeniable Old West appeal. None
