RARE, FULL FANCY DELUXE WINCHESTER 1895 WITH INTERESTING WINCHESTER FACTORY HISTORY
Description: RARE, FULL FANCY DELUXE WINCHESTER 1895 WITH INTERESTING WINCHESTER FACTORY HISTORY! This unusual rifle in .30-40 caliber with serial number 38XXX was made in 1902. I called this one in to the Cody museum myself and received the following: "Rifle, .30, fancy, checkered stock, Sights: Lyman front and receiver, screw eyes, received in the warehouse October 16, 1902 and shipped March 26 1903." Now, here's were it gets interesting. This rifle was sent out and returned a multiple amount of times through 1903-1904. Then, "Charge to John E. Bassett and Co., City, sample consignment account on September 16, 1912...Returned on October 7, 1912...Charge to Exhibition Show Case sample consignment account on October 5, 1912." So, apparently this was a Winchester exhibition rifle put on display. Bassett & Co. was a hardware company in New Haven, CT ("City"). Where it went after being on display "exhibition" after this is a mystery. Perhaps Bassett sold it or it might have been kept by the owner? Regardless, a chance to own a Winchester Factory Exhibition full deluxe Model 1895! This one shows handling, but no abuse. The fancy burl walnut is dark with 120 years of grime that has never been cleaned. The barrel retains nearly all the blue that shows some light age only. The rear dovetail is empty and the front sight is a blade/bead- I assume Lyman blade mentioned above. The receiver has the M-21 receiver sight and shows fine blue overall with some brown mixing on the edges and upper tang etc. The sling eyes ("screw eyes") are intact. Wood is generally excellent with fine checkering showing some normal light handling wear only. Tight action with excellent sharp bore. A good and proper cleaning would go a long way with this one. All deluxe 1895s are rare and this one has a fascinating Winchester history with it! SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes Rifle Caliber: .30-40 Krag Manufacturer: WINCHESTER Model: 1895 DELUXE Serial Number: 38XXX Barrel Length: 28 Condition: FINE Bore Condition: EXCELLENT |
