Not speaking for everyone but calling it an 1895 and producing it in a winchester caliber wasn't cool (at least the CE was a 300 sav). It is a post mil in amongst a time when quality wasn't savages strong point. Nothing really special about it, just gaudy with a gold lever and gold but plate with cheesy roll stamping on the receiver. The winchesters are not doing any better. In Canada you can pick up just about any NIB winchester for $400 - $600 depending on caliber.
