Winchester Model 61 .22 Take-down Pump Rifle
Description: The Model 61 is considered by many to be the finest .22 pump action rifle ever built. It was introduced in 1932 as a successor to the Model 1906, itself a development of the original Model 1890. The Model 61 saw a switch from the exposed hammer of the Models 1890 and 1906 to an internal hammer configuration. Like those two rifles, the Model 61 ejects spent cases to the side. The Model 61 is often considered a companion to the Model 12 and Model 42 pump action shotguns given the similar method of operation and the use of an internal hammer. This Model 61 is in fairly good shape considering its age. Mechanically the rifle operates smoothly and has a very good bore. The stock has lost some of the finish and it appears that it was shortened ever so slightly, though the butt plate is still the original. The top of the plate leaves a small gap of wood above it. This Model 61 would make an excellent squirrel rifle. There is a small gouge in the wood on the left-hand side and a slightly larger one on the top edge. The forend has a few small dings on the bottom but is otherwise in excellent shape. The receiver exhibits light finish wear at the lower edges while barrel has the usual streak that comes from pumping the action repeatedly over time. There is some rust/pitting on the bottom of the trigger guard. The magazine tube retains most of the original finish though it too has the “streak” from frequent pumping of the forend. There is a small nick on the right side of the barrel. It cannot be overstated how convenient the takedown feature is for this type of rifle. One could carry the rifle in two parts in a rucksack or backpack while out it the woods or mountains and reassemble the rifle at a convenient time for use as a meat-getter. With a full-length rifle one would always be concerned with getting it caught in the brush. The takedown feature helped avoid this issue.
