WINCHESTER MODEL 53, RARE CALIBER 44 WCF, MADE 100 YEARS AGO IN 1926
Description:
Hard to find Winchester Model 53 in rare 44 WCF chambering, made in 1926. This very nice rifle was built when the U.S.A. celebrated its 150th Birthday. Today, 100 years later, we will celebrate 250 years of freedom. This rifle is in great condition, considering its age. There is lots of blue on the barrel and a good bit of blue left on the receiver. The action works perfectly, is very smooth and slick, and locks up tight. The bore is bright and shiny with strong riflings. The walnut stock is in great shape with the exception of a crack near the toe of the buttstock. It is only cracked, not broken, and could be easily repaired by someone with skills.
This one is chambered in the very desireable 44 WCF caliber. These are very hard to find. I found this one in a collection and was forced to buy the entire collection in order to get this one.
Please check out the photos and contact me with questions. Thanks for looking!
