Winchester unicorn

Almost looks as good as mine.


Really, congrats! I know you've been looking for awhile.
Have to get them together for some duel wield time!

Yep, yours is that all-original musket. One day maybe mine will match it.
Would like to grab a few detailed pics of yours sometime, especially the nosecap and barrel band. The quest begins....

FINALLY....AFTER TWO YEARS

....a Winchester 1895 in 7.62x54r. Took a long time....had to part with a couple of other nice ones to afford it, but I'm so excited and I can hardly wait to shoot her. Has several Russian arsenal marks and Winchester marks on it, and it even has the guides for the '54r stripper clips!

Outstanding! Congrats! I'm not 100% up to speed on these, does yours have a bayo lug or is that on the last barrel band of the "musket"?

Yes, the musket has the bayo lug on the nosepiece right in front of the stack swivel. This one is a musket but the bottom stock was modified in the '20's to sell it commercially. Barrel, sights,etc are all intact. Great shooter as-is, maybe can find a musket stock some day.....

Anytime. I'll keep an eye out for an upper handguard too.
