c1910 WINCHESTER Model 1895 .30-40 KRAG US Lever Rifle TEDDY ROOSEVELT C&R

Used by Many Rangers & Big Game Hunters!

Here we present a C&R Winchester Model 1895 lever action repeating rifle manufactured in 1910 in New Haven, Connecticut, and chambered in .30 US, also known as the .30-40 Krag. The Model 1895 was the first Winchester rifle to feature a box magazine located underneath the action instead of the tubular magazine design, which had remained fundamentally unchanged from the Winchester 1866. This allowed the rifle to safely chamber military and hunting cartridges with pointed bullets. The M1895 was also the last of the lever-action rifles to be designed by John Moses Browning and featured a rear locking bolt as in his previous designs dating back to the Winchester Model 1886. The M1895 was the strongest lever-action rifle Winchester had produced, designed to handle the increased pressures generated by the more powerful smokeless powder cartridges entering common use at the time of its introduction.

These were used by many hunters, some of them famous, as well as law enforcement, such as Arizona & Texas Rangers. These were on the cutting edge at the time and they remain great rifles today.

The overall condition is very good. Excellent action. The bore is bright and nicely rifled. This example has maintained a solid stock with an expected amount of wear from use. Legible markings. Some original finish remains on the receiver. here is a true classic with quality that has stood the test of time.
