Winchester 1895 mfg. in 1904 in 30-40 Krag. 28" barrel. The bluing is turning to brown patina in some area with scattered freckling. The wood is in very good shape, some scratched their initials in the stock lightly. A period correct Hawkins recoil pad was added many years ago. The bore is excellent, bright with strong rifling. Was in safe for over 40 years before I got it.

$925 shipped to FFL in lower 48, more for other places. I intend to remove the buttstock for shipping. Can supply more pics tomorrow. Also has the small ebony inlet in the schnabel forend.

I'd be on it if not for the pad. Pretty old gun

I wouldn’t let the pad deter you to much it is period correct for that gun . They even make reproduction of that particular pad.

Agreed. Period Hawkin pads were seen fairly frequently on old Winchesters. I had a Black Diamond Trap Mod 12 with one on it.

I've got a DOM 1900 Winchester 1895 in 30-40 Krag (30 US) with a crescent steel butt and a full buckhorn rear sight. The bore is excellent and it is an accurate rifle. That 28 inch barrel is something else!!!


The 30-40 is an excellent hunting round.

Nice!!! And a good deal on a great classic old hunting rifle. Be fun to take some deer & hogs with too! Wish I had the extra cash right now.
