edited September 2012 in Ask the Experts
Have a recent addition to my small Winchester collection SN 955970 circa 1925 I think. It appears original to me but I'm no expert so would appreciate Bert and other's input. Receiver and lever are pretty much free of blue and barrel and mag tube are 60% or so; no pitting that I notice. Wood seems original, some small dings but no cracks or repairs. Bore is very good; shiny with strong rifling. Have not fired it yet so don't know about accuracy. If you can confirm DOB that would be great and if you want to offer an estimate of value that would be appreciated too although I don't intend to part with it any time soon; assuming you all concur in original condition. Thanks much for the help.

    The date of manufacture was March 1923. It appears to be factory original, albeit with a lot of wear to the original finish. The value is in the $750 - $900 range.
