The factory museum record lists as having a fancy checkered walnut stock and forearm with a shotgun type buttplate. It has the standard two line Winchester factory address and patent dates on the left side of the receiver. The barrel has the standard two-line "Nickel Steel Barrel/Especially for Smokeless Powder" markings on the left side of the barrel and "30 U.S." on top at the breech. It is fitted with a pinned silver blade front sight with a two-leaf rear sight and the side of the receiver is fitted with a non-factory Williams target sight. The upper tang has the two-line Winchester Model 1895 marking, and the lower tang has the serial number. It is fitted with a deluxe fancy straight grip walnut stock and forend. Both are factory checkered per the noted Winchester museum record. The forearm is fitted with the factory ebony insert, and the stock has the factory shotgun style steel buttplate.
