STUNNING WINCHESTER DELUXE CASE COLOR 1886 RIFLE. WINCHESTER 1886 DLX 68503 40-65 Cal. 40-65. 22" full oct bbl with full magazine. Case color receiver, hammer, finger lever, forend cap and crescent buttplate. 2-pc deluxe checkered 2-3X flame center cut crotch walnut pistol grip stocks with crescent butt. Lyman sporting blade front sight with sporting rear sight and Marbles folding rear tang sight. Masterfully restored by Turnbull Mfg. and Restoration Co. to an exhibition standard. CONDITION: 22" bbl properly marked with a 2-line Winchester address on top flat with "40-65 WCF" chamber marking on left bbl flat to rear of rear sight. Bbl and magazine tube are as new with no finish loss whatsoever. The polish and bluing is as if Winchester themselves had done it yesterday. The vivid and bold case colored receiver, finger lever, hammer, forend cap and crescent butt have rich reds and vivid blues in their coloring structure with a somewhat straw finished background. The colors resemble an appearance of oil on water. All these illustrious case colors are lacquer finished as Winchester did in 1892 when this rifle was originally manufactured. the 2-3X flame center cut crotch walnut is checkered in the Winchester H pattern and is finished to its highest level with an extra piano finish, capturing the golden era of Winchester manufacturing and creating a piece of mechanical art. 51005-4 TDW (15,000-20,000)
