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 change in the breech bolt mechanism brought about the change in the name designation from Model 62 to 62A. This rifle was manufactured in 1963 and features a blade front sight with bead and an adjustable rear sight, standard barrel markings with the serial number marked on the lower tang and receiver. The receiver is unmarked. The Winchester oval proof appears on the top of the barrel and receiver at the breech. Mounted with a 17 groove forearm and smooth straight grip stock with checkered hard rubber buttplate marked "Winchester / Repeating / Arms Co."
