Winchester Model 61 In 22 W.R.F. With Octagon Barrel – ITEM 1992

Item Number 1992 Category Tag

This Winchester was produced in 1938. The rifle’s serial number is 35223. It has the very desirable octagonal barrel chambered for the 22 W.R.F. cartridge. The bore is in very nice clean condition. This rifle has been shot, but used very lightly. The sights are original to this Winchester. The factory rust bluing would rate a 97% or better condition! The stock and pump handle retain all of the original finish. There is no cracks or other wood damage. The year 1938 was the year that Winchester started using the longer pump handle as standard instead of the earlier smaller handle on these model 61’s. This is also the same year that Winchester stopped using the reinforced magazine locking lip on their magazines. This rifle has two first’s going for this gun! This rifle is a very fine condition early 61 With that beautiful Rust Bluing! These early rifles are really beautiful works of art! Here is one of these fine rifles!

In Regards to Phone Calls

For those folks that do not know me yet, I’m very hard of hearing on the phone. Therefore when you would call me, I will pick up the phone and tell you that I will call you right back. I have caller ID just so that you know, the reason for that is I cannot use a regular phone. I have to switch over to what is called a voice carry over phone. When I call you back you will hear my voice in our conversation, an operator will type your conversation to me on my phone view screen. With me reading what you are saying to me saves me a lot of confusion for me mishearing words.

 

I do want to talk to you and answer your questions without mistakes or miscommunications. This system works pretty good, so please be willing to be patient with my hearing loss.

 

My wife Marcia has fine hearing on the phone and is quite knowledgeable about firearms and is very able to help you over the phone.

 

Thanks, Harry
