New Acquisition. Winchester
Hi all. Took my recently acquired Model of 1917 out to the range last weekend. Shot real nice. The barrel, bolt and receiver all match with Winchester markings and Nov. 1918 dates (per C. S. Ferris' book which is outstanding btw). Several parts such as rear sight ladder (R), the stock (E) have been replaced at arsenal. Eddystone's E is stamped on the fore end, but no arsenal rebuild stamp on the side. No original eagle inspector's stamps around the trigger guard either. Anyhow, here are some pics. How do you like her? https://www.milsurps.com/images/impo...SAM_1258-1.jpg https://www.milsurps.com/images/impo...SAM_1268-1.jpg https://www.milsurps.com/images/impo...SAM_1271-1.jpg https://www.milsurps.com/images/impo...SAM_1273-1.jpg https://www.milsurps.com/images/impo...SAM_1274-1.jpg https://www.milsurps.com/images/impo...SAM_1275-1.jpg https://www.milsurps.com/images/impo...SAM_1272-1.jpg Oh yea, do you like the little bullet / pencil give aways from back in the day?
