I have acquired this from my dad (which I have been acquiring most of my father's firearms . . and will acquire the remainder of them, as he says, LOL). Well, this rifle he's had for many, many years. I finally was able to ask him to let me see about restoring it (mainly replacing broken or missing parts). After having this rifle in my home for a little bit, I have fallen in love with it. Now I cannot wait to get the replacement parts, and get her back to her functioning state.
Well, here are a few pics of it. Again, its a Winchester Model 1873, dated 1889, .32-20 caliber.
