Description
The serial number on this U.S. Repeating Arms Co. Winchester Model 1886 reflects a circa 2001 special limited configuration model (possibly a dealer special order or a Shot Show display rifle) ,and is #26 of an unknown production run (most likely under 250). SPECS: Select grade smooth black walnut stock with gloss finish, semi-pistol grip with black metal cap, high luster bluing, 26" full octagon barrel, buckhorn adjustable elevator rear sight , dovetailed gold bead front sight, curved metal buttplate with blued finish, full length magazine tube and tang safety. Does not include a box or paperwork. CONDITION: This rifle is in same-as-new condition with no wear to speak of, has a perfect sharp/ clean bore and appears to be in good working order. HISTORY: The Winchester Model 1886 was designed by John Browning to handle some of the more powerful cartridges of the period. Originally chambered in .45-70 Government, it was later offered in a half dozen other large cartridges. Despite being originally designed for use with black powder, the action was strong enough to make the jump to smokeless powder with only minor modifications, and was subsequently chambered in the smokeless .33 Winchester cartridge beginning in 1903. It was discontinued in 1935, when Winchester introduced a slightly modified M1886 as the Model 71, chambered for the more powerful .348 Winchester cartridge. FREE SHIPPING & NO PROCESSING FEES.
