Russian Winchester 1895 - graphical warning

Post by jack57000 »

Hi all

you could see below a few pics of the various russian winchester 1895 i've found since december last year.

some are in original condition, some have been reblued at a moment.

on one the stock was bad but fortunately i've found an original stock in better condition, and another one has not the good screw on the band, i'm looking to get the correct one.

you will not see on this pic a sporterized one i'm currently trying to restore at original condition...

i've tested some at range, the target you can see was at 100m with commercial PPU FMJ.

i've also found a bayonet to complete all of that...

Now that's just not fair! You're hogging all of the fun guns! Seriously though, that is an absolutely fantastic collection of 1895s!

:Drool1: :Drool1: I just noticed the lever handle two piece design and pin. Is that something functional besides being a handle? Is there another lever action w/ a charging slot?

i'm not an expert on the history of the winchester. we should find one to reply to you.
i really don't know why the lever is in 2 parts.

Anyone coming here and showing three of those rifles needs to be banned permanently!

Nice stuff!

I haven't seen one go for under $2000 in a while. One just sold a week or two in auction for over $3000.

Damn Jack you may give JYD a run for his money as far as collections go.

Question what is the proper sling for the Winchester 1895 Russian Contract? I had read M1907 but that seems too simple.

Thank you. Not sure where Vic got M1907 Sling from. That one makes more sense. Anyone happen to have an extra one they would sell?

If you look at the one we have at the shop the sling attachment is still there. We all thought someone hung a GEW88 sling attachment to it.
