Description:

When the Model 1890 and 1906 were dropped from production in 1932, Winchester introduced the Model 62 to take their place. Winchester offered this Gallery version chambered for the .22 short only. Gallery guns have a triangular loading port which the standard models did not have. A 1938 change in the breech bolt mechanism brought about the change in the name designation from Model 62 to 62A. The left side of the receiver is roll marked "WINCHESTER". Blade front sight and adjustable rear sight. 17 groove forearm and straight grip stock with plastic butt plate marked "Winchester Repeating Arms Co." This model was discontinued in 1958. Manufactured in 1957.

Rating Definition:

Excellent plus, approximately bright original finish remaining with scattered faint spotting, scratches, and scuffs. The wood is excellent plus also.
