Fantastic Pre-64 Winchester Model 88 Lever Action Rifle with Original Box

Manufactured in 1956 when the original purchase price was $123.95. Standard Winchester markings including the factory oval proof on the left side of the barrel and receiver at the breech. Equipped with a Winchester 103 C beaded front sight on a ramp with removable cover and a Lyman 16 A adjustable folding rear sight. The receiver is tapped for scope/sight mounting. The Model 88 was the first lever action Winchester rifle to have a one piece pistol grip stock. The checkered stock has a grip cap, sling swivels and a checkered non-slip nylon shotgun style Winchester buttplate. The rifle has the hanging tag and time payment tag. The Winchester factory box is numbered to the gun and has the cardboard partitions and protective paper. The rifle has the instructions pamphlet. The following Winchester items are with the rifle: an extra Model 88 magazine, one box of Winchester 308 Win cartridges, a 1956 Winchester retail price list, Winchester Model 88 sequence of takedown and assembly operations handbook, Winchester catalog and Model 88 ad.

ConditionNear new in box with a few mild handling marks on the buttstock. The box is very fine with a couple split corners and a couple tears. In the opinion of the writer this is the best Model 88 we have auctioned!
