RARE 1st MODEL Saddle Ring CARBINE Antique WINCHESTER-HOTCHKISS .45-70 GOVT Early Bolt Action by Winchester Made in 1882!
Description: RARE 1st MODEL Saddle Ring CARBINE Antique WINCHESTER-HOTCHKISS .45-70 GOVT Early Bolt Action by Winchester Made in 1882! Here we present an antique Winchester-Hotchkiss First Model Bolt Action Carbine in .45-70 GOVT, manufactured in 1882 at the Springfield Armory in Springfield, Massachusetts. The Winchester-Hotchkiss rifle was first conceived by Benjamin B. Hotchkiss in 1875 and by 1877 he had four US patents on the design which was sold to the Winchester company in early 1877. This was Winchester’s first bolt action rifle and their first firearm with a magazine fed from the butt stock. It was marketed for military applications as well as a hunting rifle, but it would not see widespread use in the US military. But this one did. A joint production program was undertaken after the Winchester design passed United States Army Ordnance Department tests in 1878. Springfield Armory assembled rifles from Winchester actions and hardware with barrels and stocks manufactured at the armory. The Army ordered 513 Hotchkiss First Model Rifles for infantry units stationed on the western frontier including Texas and Fort Abraham Lincoln in the Dakota Territory. Springfield subsequently modified 501 of these rifles to carbines for testing by cavalry units. It was a quite modern firearm for the time, a big-bore, bolt action saddle ring carbine. The overall condition is near fine. The action remains strong. This example has maintained a bright bore and sharp rifling. The stock is solid and in good shape. The top of the comb has the number “28” stamped, a rack number. A fantastic and hard to find Winchester Hotchkiss carbine! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 24 inches. Caliber: .45-70 Government Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $3545 #201449 SOLD Antique: Yes |
