I have just aquired a Winchester Winder .22, SN 129785. Anyone have an idea when it was made? The stocks and sight have what appears to be initials JB, who might that be? Can someone tell me how to disassemble the rifle for cleaning? The rear sight windage adjustment screw moves freely, is there some way to hold it in position? Thanks, Frank
Go to ArmsCollectors.com and go to the serial number site.
Been to that site, all they show is "sometime after 1919". Surely someone has more info........

ask-bert h. your questions and provide him your data , he was very helpfull to me
Most of the Winchester Winder rifles were chambered for 22 short so if you rechamber to the long rifle cartridge the barrel twist will not be accurate. Also look for any US military markings as they were used for training during WW1. They can also be found with Krag rear sights too.
looked for one of these for a long time -
