If it has an external hammer, it is likely a Winchester M1890 or possibly a M1906, probably with a barrel from a Remington Model 12 or some other Remington model. If you could remove the tang sight,...

I believe grooved triggers were initiated in 1949, but they probably were gradually introduced, since Winchester (and others) hated to waste anything.
The 69A is a great rifle, and I know that every...

I can't tell much about it from the one blurry photo, but if it's in excellent condition and is truly a short-only chambering, I would guess its value in the neighborhood of $750. The caption reads...

The M29B, although an excellent rifle, doesn't attract a whole lot of collector interest.
So, I wouldn't worry too much about a reduction in value from refinishing, and I would have to agree that a...

I have a friend who says he bought one NIB with the Lyman 57 receiver sight and a front sight like yours, Gerald. I don't think this was a catalog version, but maybe a special order?
