Description
Winchester M1885 High Wall Schuetzen Rifle Caliber .32-40 #166198, Manufactured after 1920, with Magnificent Contemporary Embellishment. 30" octagon to round barrel, 21.5 MM diameter at the muzzle. Mechanically perfect, mint bore, fitted with double set triggers and Marbles tang sight, post missing. The gun was exquisitely refinished at the time of embellishment and is overall as new, with the exception of some wear to the nickel finish on the brass buttplate. Receiver and lever deeply and profusely engraved with scroll work on a matte background. The right side of the receiver is inlaid with a beautifully engraved gold buffalo on a stippled background surrounded by a gold border, the left side with a superbly detailed gold Indian head, similarly enclosed. Stocks also mint with the checkering likely freshened when the gun was refinished. A beautiful and rare rifle displaying the finest of the gunsmith's art.Auction Info
