Manufactured in 1911. Beaded blade Lyman front sight and elevation adjustable rear sight on a barrel stamped with the two-line address/patent dates legend, two-line nickel steel marking and "45-70" on the left side. A Winchester factory oval proof is stamped on top of the barrel and receiver at the breech. The upper tang has the three-line Model 1886/trade mark information. The full length magazine is a rare feature on an extra lightweight rifle. The lower tang has the two-line patent dates and the serial number. The left of the lower tang is marked "674". Sling eyelets are mounted on the underside of the forend cap and buttstock. The straight grip stock is fitted with a checkered Winchester hard rubber shotgun buttplate.
