There are no bad guns, only bad people.
Why those lever rifles are listed by DOM instead of model number is something I've always wondered about. Bert?
I have a model 1905 made in 1905. Just to let you know, for some reason when I did a search on that model, if I just searched 1905 winchester, 1905 lever rifles kept popping up.

If you had searched for it using the correct terminology "Model 1905 Winchester", your search engine/browser more than likely would not have popped up with a 1905 vintage lever-action. Many people list things exactly the same way you conducted your search... without the complete listing of the details.

I hadn't thought of that. Maybe it is a lever gun made in 1905 I just assumed it was a model 1905. More to follow when I look at it.
You mentioned that it was .351 caliber in your first post... if that is the actual caliber, it is not a lever-action.
well it was a little of both. a model 1905 in deplorable condition which I will part out and a 1894 octagon barrel.
The picture is clearer now![^] Did the Model 1905 come with its original factory magazine ?
