Atlas Collectible Firearms is profoundly honored to present this historic second-year production 1895 Winchester Model 1894 Deluxe Takedown. Chambered in the quintessential .30 WCF (.30-30), this rare antique features a 24 3/8 inch octagon-to-round barrel. As an early Deluxe Takedown model with high-grade features, this rifle represents a significant investment piece for the serious Winchester scholar looking for 19th-century frontier elegance.
The aesthetics of this rifle are remarkable, featuring original "XXX" fancy black walnut stocks with style "H" checkering. The firearm is equipped with a bead front sight, an express rear sight, and a vintage "Climin Lyman" receiver sight. This rifle retains roughly 60% of its original dull fading blue finish and showcases a steel shotgun buttplate.
This storied Winchester is presented as a standalone rifle. The assembly number "4577" and "XXX" wood grade markings are properly stamped inside the lower tang, confirming its deluxe pedigree. The firearm remains in collector grade condition for its age, showing general light surface freckling and honest wear on the furniture. The action is mechanically sound and the bore shows slight darkening with sound rifling, standing as a primary example of John Browning's most successful design.
