W3652 WINCHESTER MODEL 1873 ROUND BARREL RIFLE IN 44 WCF; 24 inch round barrel chambered in 44 WCF caliber with a fair bore. Full length magazine tube. Original German silver blade front and replacement flattop sporting rear sights. Barrel and mag are a brown/gray color with what appears to be spattered with a white paint (possible over-spray too close to the rifle) mostly on the left side. Receiver is a plum/brown with traces of blue in the protected areas. Also a bit of the spattered paint on the frame. Forearm has a couple of cracks that are sound and solid. Buttstock shows some small dings and handling mars but looks good overall. Crescent rifle style buttplate. An example piece that may clean up and would look good in re-enactments or “Cowboy Action” that was made in 1882.
ANTIQUE $ 2,375.
