Atlas Collectible Firearms is profoundly honored to present this Master Engraved pre-war Winchester Model 64 Deluxe factory special ordered lever action rifle. Manufactured in 1938 and chambered in the iconic .30 W.C.F., this lever-action rifle features a 20-inch barrel and represents a breathtaking marriage of Winchester’s mechanical excellence and high-art embellishment. This specimen is a significant find for the elite Winchester enthusiast seeking a museum-quality centerpiece.
The receiver is masterfully engraved by the legendary Nick Kusmit, featuring intricate heart-shaped borders and fine foliate scrollwork on punch-dot backgrounds. The left side showcases a vignette of a bugling elk, signed "NK," while the right features a detailed bear scene. The rifle is stocked in factory numbers matching "XXX" high-grade walnut with classic checkering, a steel pistol grip cap, and a matching assembly-numbered "5007" buttstock that retains a beautiful, rich figure.
Accompanying this rifle is a deluxe wooden presentation case with a vibrant red velvet-lined interior. The metal surfaces exhibit a professionally reapplied blue finish that remains in 100% condition, and the bore is near mirror-bright with strong rifling throughout. This Model 64 remains in exceptional collector grade condition, showing only the most superficial marks from careful storage. It stands as a blue-chip investment-grade rarity that perfectly captures the spirit of early American custom craftsmanship.
