Additional information

Winchester 30 WCF Antique rifle serial # 23961. Gun was made in 1895. The octagon barrel has been cut down to 18", bore still has plenty of rifling with its fair amount of pitting, but still a very shootable bore. There has been two tapped holes on top of the barrel, not sure of reasoning. Bluing is turning to a brownish patina on barrel. Sights are incorrect replacements. Front forestock has had added finish with both sides toward the cap of the forestock having approximately 1" or so cracks up on the top towards the barrel, same places, both sides. The stock still rates good for the vintage. Receiver still has some original finish left, but also turning to a brown patina. It has two buggered screws on the loading gate side. The top of the recevier toward the barrel, again not sure why, seems to have been buffed flat to try to match the top of the barrel. It is not taken all the way down to the barrel, but is noticeably flat, pictures show best as possible. Original hammer in place, rear buttstock has had major repair to the top, not well done. Also a chip/chunk taken out up by the receiver and lower tang. Stock remains shootable, but further repairs or replacements might be of best interest. This rifle does have the correct crescent butt plate. To wrap up this antique 30 WCF, it shoots and is mechanically in good working order. I have shot this gun with great grouping and cylced flawlessly. All in all, this is an antique and the majority of the flaws are cosmetic. Money order, certified check or personal check accepted with delayed shipping until check is cleared. I am a private collector, please examine pictures well and I can try to help explain anything further via email. I do not hold an FFL so please make sure your FFL will except private transfers with a copy of my drivers license. Thanks
