Winchester Model 1895 Grade I – .30-06 SPRG – 1997 – Engraved – Miroku
This is a no-reserve penny auction for a modern reproduction Winchester Model 1895 lever-action rifle in .30-06 Springfield. Serial number – NF0529. This rifle was manufactured in 1997 in Japan, and is in fantastic condition, with a great bore.
The modern Miroku-manufactured Winchester Model 1895 reintroduction masterfully blends late 19th-century styling with late 20th-century safety developments, featuring a robust box magazine that allows the safe use of modern, pointed spitzer bullets like the .30-06 Springfield without the risk of chain-detonation inherent to traditional tubular magazines. Unlike the original John Browning design, these modern variants incorporate a top-tang safety switch and a rebounding hammer system to prevent accidental discharges. Built with modern, high-tensile steel alloys and precision machining, they are renowned for exceptional accuracy, smooth lever cycling, and tight lockup, while still maintaining traditional aesthetic details like the straight-grip American walnut stock and Schnabel fore-end.
