1895 Winchester

Neat old magazine articles Knute!

In a related vein, A Winchester catalog from my youth ....

You know what they say: "There's one in every crowd" ....

I want to be ... "That Guy"!

(The one with the model 1896 or 1898 Krag carbine).


Actually - Use the KCA "Search Window" (and type - Morenci) to get more information about this Winchester PR Blunder in old KCA threads.

The article about the Rangers said the guy with the Krag looked uneasy. I think he looks happy. I don't own a Winchester. I'm a "Marlin Man".

Well, they ain't Texas Rangers either.

(I'm a Marlin Man, too. But, I'd sure like to have a model 1895 Winchester in .30-40).

Well, I ain't got one either (1895 Winchester in 30-40), but in a different post months ago I presented such a rifle that an uncle sold that had belonged to a Great Grandfather and set my brother up to get it back. It will be an annual thing where he brings it down to have a family shoot with it (at least the last 2 years).

Side view. Not bad for $650 to get it back in the family.
