Winchester 1895 Deluxe 405 Win 1903

Description:
BEAUTIFUL WINCHESTER MODEL 1895 DLX RIFLE IN DESIRABLE 405 WCF; 24 
inch tapered round barrel chambered in the desirable 405 WCF caliber 
with a bright shiny excellent bore. Sights include a Lyman beaded blade 
front and a sporting rear with a Lyman receiver sight. Most all thinning 
barrel blue remains with some minor freckling. Receiver also has most 
all of its factory refinished blue with just a little flaking on the top 
of the bolt. Strong vibrant case colors on the hammer. Crisp action. 
Very fine walnut stocks show extra figure as well as checkering with 
only a few minor dings. Hard rubber shotgun butt. This is an interesting 
rifle as it was made in 1903 which is the first year for the 405 WCF 
caliber. According to the Research Form this rifle went back to the 
factory 4 different times for Repair and Return. This would explain the 
factory oval Proof marks on  the barrel and frame. There is a "J.P.P." 
marking on the upper tang for James P. Parker who was a Winchester 
factory worker that did barrel work. It is believed that during these 
trips back to the factory are when it was transformed into the current 
deluxe configuration. This is a beautiful looking hard to find deluxe 
405 caliber Winchester Model 1895 rifle!
