Wow, you will want to check this one out. Old West Antiques just took in a Model 1873 Winchester Rifle. The serial number indicates it was made in 1894. It has 90% plus original blue on the receiver, 85% to 90% blue on the barrel and tube. Good percentage of varnish remaining, case colors on the hammer and lever. 24" octagon barrel, full magazine, crescent butt plate, excellent bore, crisp action, correct and original in every way. This rifle is collector or investment grade. 1873 Winchesters in this condition are hard to find. The only flaw I could find is a small chip in the wood of the forearm. Additional photos are available.
