Product Information & Specs
Seller Description For This Firearm
This Deluxe Winchester 1873 rifle was engraved by John Ulrich 134 years ago. It is a custom ordered rifle engraved with gold plated receiver and trim. There is wear to the gold plating, from use, but this rifle was well cared for.
The wood is the finest I have ever seen on a Winchester and the fit and finish were perfectly accomplished by the Winchester craftsmen in 1888, when it was made.
The most wear is on the butt plate and the receiver covers. This is complete with factory folding peep sight and a folding front hood site. For a rifle of this age, this is in lovely condition showing it was used and cherished. Accompanying the rifle is the Winchester letter from the Cody Museum, the keeper of Winchester factory archives. I have many additional photos for those seriously interested.
This rifle was a proud possession of a man who was well heeled both financially and outfitted. It is an heirloom that can be used, kept clean and passed down for generations. Winchesters of this quality and condition are rarely offered outside of of auction houses and have brought 6 figure prices for a number of years.
There are no more being made and quality Winchesters have always held value and increased over time.
The insurance for shipping this rifle will be discussed with the buyer and Guns.com for the protection of all concerned.

WARNING
Why Buy from Guns.com?
PEACE OF MIND
Shopping at Guns.com gives you the backing of a company that is committed to your satisfaction. And unlike our competitors, it extends beyond the buying process. We get the FFL from your store – others make you find it, copy it, and fax it. We have a generous return policy, and handle everything – you don’t have to go back to the store. And our Rangemasters are here to answer all your questions about our products or process. We're bringing a level of service to the online gun buying experience that is unheard of.
WE SUPPORT LOCAL GUN STORES
Many online gun sales actually take away from your local community. Instead of buying a gun that’s on your local store’s shelf, most retailers drop ship it from a warehouse in another state. At Guns.com, if an FFL is part of our network, we sell THEIR guns first whenever possible. That way, we’re helping small businesses in your community AND if they have it in stock, you can pick your gun up IMMEDIATELY – it’s how business should be done.
WE KEEP IT SIMPLE
Most everything can be easily bought online these days. But for some reason, buying a gun online can be complicated. Most websites are poorly organized, don’t tell you a lot about what you’re buying, and leave you on your own to figure out what you want. Guns.com is built to be simple – easily organized products, useful descriptions from experts, and support to guide you to the right choice. Spend your time enjoying the gun you want, not getting frustrated with a complex website that makes gun buying hard.
