This gun is 97% with very few marks at all. Metal and bluing near perfect with a few spots on the left side of the receiver. It was made in 1955 Serial number 42XXX. Not much to say that pictures won't do nicely...$1999.00

I have to say, that is one damn fine rifle right there.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Good price for a nice 71 Standard. How does it shoot?

That is one of the guns that I buy the ammo for when I see it even though I do not have one .... yet!
Bump for a great gun.

Best lever Winchester ever made. What caliber? Seriously, I had its predecessor, the 1886 in .33 Winchester and sadly had to let it get away to fund my move to Japan. Maybe someday I'll be in a position to get one of these, if another shows up down the road.
