SELDOM SEEN 1873 SADDLE RING CARBINE IN RARE .32-20 CALIBER

Description:
SELDOM SEEN 1873 SADDLE RING CARBINE IN RARE .32-20 CALIBER! For whatever reason Winchester made loads of rifles in .32-20, but very few carbines in this caliber. Many Winchester collectors have never seen one except in books. Most that I've seen in the last couple of decades have been late production examples and almost all display hard use. I called the Cody Museum on this one with serial number 601XXX and the call-in sheet verified the caliber and that it was a carbine. It was received in the warehouse August 8, 1907 and wasn't shipped until November 29, 1909. So this one sat in the warehouse for over 2 1/4 years. I believe many, if not most, of these went south of the border to Mexico which was about a year away from revolution, or to South America. This is a solid carbine that shows use. the receiver is an uncleaned gray/brown with some good blue around the saddle ring and in the more protected areas around the side plates and on the loading gate. There is good aged blue on the right side and bottom portions of the mag tube with the right side and most of the barrel a gray/brown. The barrel is fitted with a 3-leaf express sight and standard carbine front sight, all markings and correct post-1905 proof marks are good. the butt stock is solid with good wood to metal fit, shows normal wear with no abuse and has the correct carbine butt plate without the trap for cleaning rods- only the .38-40 and .44-40 have the trap. Another interesting feature found only on the .32 caliber carbines is that it has a rifle-style magazine retaining band around the magazine tube only- as seen on rifles. the larger caliber carbines have a full band that encircles the mag tube as well as the barrel. The forend shows heavy saddle wear and handling wear. On the high edge left side just below the rear sight is a series of shallow and tiny "kill notches" that are very old and worn in. Obviously, this carbine holds a great untold history! The dust cover is intact, mech. is fine and the bore is a bit dark and worn with good rifling. One of the hardest 1873s to find.
