Introduced in 1932, the Winchester Model 61 quickly established itself as one of the finest pump-action rimfire rifles ever produced. Its streamlined hammerless action, precision machining, and exceptionally smooth operation set a new standard for American sporting .22 rifles. Manufactured in 1955, this desirable post-war example features the classic takedown configuration that has made the Model 61 a favorite among Winchester collectors for generations.
Chambered in .22 S/L/LR, the Model 61 offers outstanding versatility for target shooting, plinking, pest control, and small-game hunting. Its silky-smooth slide-action cycles effortlessly, while the 24.00-inch barrel and factory adjustable semi-buckhorn sights provide the accuracy and sight picture that earned the Model 61 its legendary reputation. Whether feeding quiet .22 Shorts or full-power Long Rifle ammunition, this rifle delivers dependable performance backed by Winchester's renowned craftsmanship.
The factory takedown design allows the rifle to separate quickly for compact transport and easy maintenance without sacrificing rigidity when assembled. Its smooth walnut pistol-grip stock, grooved forearm, and excellent balance make it equally comfortable on the range or in the squirrel woods. The streamlined hammerless receiver completes one of Winchester's most elegant and mechanically refined sporting rimfire designs.
Produced from 1932 through 1963, the Winchester Model 61 remains one of the most desirable collectible American rimfire rifles. Original examples continue to appreciate as enthusiasts seek rifles that combine outstanding craftsmanship, practical field performance, and enduring reliability. Whether you're adding a classic Winchester to your collection or searching for a premium vintage hunting rifle, this 1955 Model 61 represents an excellent opportunity to own one of the finest pump-action .22s ever built.
