Manufactured in 1919, this is a rare Trapper's Carbine with a 14 inch barrel. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms lists this carbine as being removed from the purview of the National Firearms Act and classified as a curio and relic, and a copy of the ATF exemption letter is included. It has standard markings including Winchester factory oval proofs on the barrel and receiver at the breech. It is fitted with pinned blade front and folding ladder rear sights, as well as a saddle ring on the left of the receiver. It's mounted with a smooth forearm and straight grip stock with a carbine buttplate.
Fine, retains 40% plus of the original blue finish with the balance having thinned to mostly a smooth grey patina, primarily in areas that show some evidence of light cleaning and numerous scattered patches of moderate pitting overall. The wood is also fine with some scattered minor dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent. These carbines generally were generally working guns and thus remain desirable in almost any condition!
