Winchester ~ Model 62A Gallery Gun ~ .22 Short

Description:
Very good condition, some finish wear, small area of light corrosion on left side of receiver. Manufactured in 1958. Replacing both the Model 1890 and the 1906 in production when introduced in 1932, the new Model 62 was sold in a standard commercial and a 'gallery' version. Gallery guns typically were chambered for .22 short only, the breech unable to feed longer rounds. A triangular cartridge-shaped cutout in the top of the tube ensured the rounds were loaded facing the right direction, making them great gallery guns. Winchester marketed these little gatts to carnivals by the crate, and, because they were likely to be seen and handled by thousands, placed a huge rollmark on the left hand side of these receivers so that new shooters who liked the rifle and had no doubt who made it. These gallery guns also had better sights, typically with adjustable rears and a post front. .22 Short
