There are traces of original case coloring remaining on the frame and hammer with an even aged grey . There are No signficant rust or pits. Excellent Caliber marking on the brass lifter, 38 Cal. Nice original barrel blue thats faded somewhat but totally orginal. The original open sights are present as well as a properly coded Lyman Tang sight. The DELUXE Full Fancy Stock and fore end have great original checkering and correct assembly numbers in the stock channel, tang and butt plate. The bore is decent and certainly shootable but does have some dark spots and old corrosion with visible rifling. We rate the bore a 5 out of 10. All mechanics work as they should. This is really nice Original Antique Winchester 1873 Deluxe Special order rifle in totally untouched condition. It is almost 130 years old and still looks fantastic. Antique Pre-1898 No FFL required.
