Description:
WINCHESTER M64 LEVER ACTION .30 WCF C&R Hunting/Sporting “STANDARD” Rifle 

Excellent Example from the Early 1950s > 67,000 Made

Here we present a C&R Winchester Model 64 Lever Action Rifle manufactured in New Haven, Connecticut in 1951. Production began in late 1932, and in 1933, Winchester introduced the Model 64 lever-action rifle as an evolved version of the 53 and 55 Winchester rifles. The Model 64 was available in .30 WCF (30-30), .32 WS, .25-35, and .219 Zipper (1938-1941) calibers.  This rifle could be ordered with a round 24 or 20-inch barrel, the wood walnut, plain or checkered, with a pistol-grip stock and shotgun buttplate.  The frame and barrel were blued and had a solid feature with a forged front sight. There were two variants offered, which were the “Standard Rifle” and the “Deer Rifle”. Many collectors refer to the Deer Rifle as a “Deluxe” that came with sling swivels, a steel pistol-grip cap, a checkered buttstock and forend, and if desired, double set triggers. Production of the Model 64 ended in late 1957, with an estimated 66,783 manufactured.


Somewhere around 1946, Winchester, at the other gunmakers persistence, bowed to them and renamed the cartridge to .30-30, rather than the .30 WCF (Winchester Center Fire), obviously because the other makers didn’t like the Winchester name in the cartridge their rifles were firing, along with Winchester worrying they would miss out due to everyone else calling it a .30-30.

The overall condition is fine. Original finish is preserved. Excellent action. Shiny bright bore with sharp rifling. Drilled and tapped receiver. Subsequently added sling swivels. Markings are crisp. The stock is in fine shape with minimal handling wear and light dings.

This firearm is classified as Curio & Relic.
