Win 70 30 Gov't '06 (1946)

[T Bone]

1946.

Winchester's best work for the finest generation piecing their lives back together after WWII.

I'll let the pictures do the talking.

Stock is unbedded.

Bore is bright.

Hint of a crack on right side of tang.

Rear sight is missing.

Plugged stock (well done) where there was a compass.

$990 shipped to your FFL from me. Hard plastic case.

Holy hell T Bone

I’ll echo what someone said on your last sale… what is in your “do not sell” pile

 

[millerkiller77]

What is the barrel length?

 

[MThuntr]

I'm so sad I spent all my $ on other toys

 

[Hunter4Life78]

That is beautiful. I'm doing some math,

And a pic of the front sight please

Making it hard to upgrade optics.

Hey can I ask what the serial number is? I've got the same rifle, serial number is 58000 if I recall correctly.

What is the barrel length?

My great grampa had this same rifle in 270. I asked for it when my grandmother passed, but my uncle kept it for his worthless son who is about as much of a hunter as a house plant. Those transition rifles are just cool.

Just wanted to show off my Gpas pre64 30-06. There's a better chance of an ice sculpture making a permanent home in an equatorial jungle than me selling it.

I have my father's Model 70 30 Gov't 06 from 1937, second year of production #11xx. Still wish it had the gold bead front sight, but he had it replaced with a fiber optic, still shoots like a dream, but with the rear peep sight the stock bites your cheek bone pretty hard. Might have to use it if I ever draw a moose tag in WA since he killed a few in Alberta back in the late 60's.
