Description:Manufactured in 1907. Fitted with a blade front sight and Lyman receiver sight with the rear dovetail slot having a filler block. The left side of the barrel has the two line nickel steel barrel marking followed by "405 W.C.F." The left side of the receiver is marked with the two-line address/patent date marking. The top of the barrel and receiver have the Winchester factory WP proof at the breech with the receiver also having a Winchester factory rework "P" proof. The upper tang is marked "MODEL 95/-WINCHESTER-/TRADE MARK". Mounted with a nicely figured, multi-point non-factory checkered forearm with a Schnabel tip with ebony inlay and straight grip stock with a checkered steel buttplate.
Rating Definition:Fine. The rifle retains 70% of the original blue finish with the balance a smooth brown patina. The recheckered, refinished wood is very good with a filled repair and minor crack on the wrist, a minor crack on the forearm and a few minor pressure dents. The buttplate is not flush with the butt and chipping on the buttstock is near the heel. Mechanically fine.
