Manufactured in 1916. Two line address/patent date marking on the left side of the barrel ahead of the rear sight and "38 W.C.F." at the breech on the left side. The Winchester oval proof is marked on top of the barrel and receiver at the breech. Three line upper tang marking and the serial number on the bottom of the receiver. Blade front and carbine folding leaf rear sights, saddle ring and staple on the left side of the receiver, all blue finish and mounted with a smooth walnut forearm and straight grip stock with a steel buttplate.
Very fine. The carbine retains 70% original blue finish with the balance between a smooth gray and brown patina. There is a minor dent on the bottom of the magazine tube. The wood is also very fine with a couple pressure dents and some minor handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
