Winchester Model 52 Sporter 22lr
Description: Winchester Model 52B Sporting Rifle - Manufatured 1947 - Round Top - No extra holes This early Model 52B is in very good unrestored used condition, all original components present. The metal is all in nice shape for a gun made in 1947, and again no modifications or holes, etc, nothing changed since it left the factory. Finishes are almost full coverage, some bluing wear on the muzzle and the sight hood. bore is in excellent condition. Lyman sight looks good and works well. Magazine is correct for the gun, with the extensive wording, not a later version with just a W on the bottom. Also has the original Winchester super grade detatchable swivels, and the inletted two screw bases. Alll screws on the gun in nice shape, not perfect, but way better than most I have seen. The stock is pleasantly figured, but not fancy. The black forend tip is secure and well fit. Checkering is nice and as expected for the era. Steel butt plate remains well finished, some marks on the lower edge and where the plate rests when the rifle is in a standing rack. Wood does show many handling marks from use, but no cracks or chips, and retains virtually all of the shiny finish except from some of the handling mark areas. The stock does have the relief cutout for the older style type A safety, as well as being relieved for the type B safety. These low production rifles were known to sometimes take years for production to finish, and carryover parts were used if possible, as described in H. G. Houze's book dedicated to the model 52. Nice example to look at and to shoot.
