Manufactured in 1925, the second year of production. The rifle has the standard barrel and three line upper tang marking with the serial number on the bottom of the frame. The Winchester oval proof is marked on top of the receiver and barrel at the breech. The bottom of the receiver just to the left of the lever is stamped with the number "41". Ramped folding globe front sight and adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight. Mounted with a smooth forearm with a steel end cap and straight grip stock with a serrated steel buttplate. Complete with the original box numbered to the gun.

Rating Definition:

Excellent. The rifle retains 98% original blue finish with only some minor high point wear, and original blue finish on the lever. There are a few very small areas of surface blemishes on the receiver. The wood is also excellent . The markings are crisp and clear. The action is excellent. The box is good with some wear, and labels intact. Impossible to find like this in the original box!
