1886 38-56 - 11/21/12
Hi Guy's
Wondering if I could get some info on this gun. I'm a Savage collector and don't know anything about Winchester's. While at camp last week one of the guy's pulled out his great grandfather's model 1886 in 38-56. Serial #95596. I've never even heard of a 38-56 calibre rifle. Any idea on age and or rarity of this model? It had an octagon barrel, crescent buttstock and a full length magazine. All original, blueing has turned plumb coloured. Overall great condition for it's age.
Thanks in advance for any info!
