c1883 mfr. Antique WINCHESTER Model 1876 .45-60 WCF LEVER Action RIFLE West Classic Big Bore Lever Action Rifle with Octagonal Barrel
Description: c1883 mfr. Antique WINCHESTER Model 1876 .45-60 WCF LEVER Action RIFLE West Classic Big Bore Lever Action Rifle with Octagonal Barrel Here we present an antique Winchester 1876 Lever Action Rifle chambered in .45-60 WCF, made in 1883 in New Haven, Connecticut. With the arrival of many powerful centerfire cartridges appearing on the firearms market, is was no surprise that Winchester would develop a new rifle based on the proven Winchester function. Up to this point, Winchester was focused on guns competing to fire the established centerfire and rimfire cartridges. The Winchester Model 1876, also known as the “Centennial Model” due to it appearing in time for America’s 100-year birthday celebration, became their “full-power” answer in the firearms market, with only 63,872 total being made beginning in 1876 and continuing through 1898. The main difference between the Model 1876 over preceding Winchester designs was its enlarged receiver specifically designed to handle the larger, full-power cartridges. The tube magazine could hold up to 15 rounds, depending on the cartridge the rifle was chambered in. The barrel lengths varied between 23 and 36 inches, with all lengths between available. The first production models were chambered in 45-75 WCF, and other chamberings followed firing the .40-60, .45-60, and the .50-95 Winchester Express. Overall, the Model 1876 more than proved its worth as a Winchester lever action repeater. It was a powerful firearm with great stopping power and reliability second to none. Some of the famous names to use the Model 1876 included the Texas Rangers, the Canadian Mounted Police, the Apache war chief Geronimo, and former US President Teddy Roosevelt. Roosevelt’s first Winchester was a Model 1876 which he ordered when he was 22 years old. The overall condition is very good. The action is strong. The bore is reflective with good rifling. The receiver, barrel, magazine tube, and butt plate have original plum patina. The walnut stock shows that it has seen many days use in the out of doors. It has been varnished at some point in the past—remains solid. Front and rear sights are replacements—the front sight appears to be a period ad hoc replacement. A great example of the 1876 that has been there and done that! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 28 inches Caliber: .45-60 Winchester Center Fire Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $5125 #215215 SOLD Antique: Yes |
