This ole girl is a real beauty and was shipped out on a cold February day in 1902.
This Winchester 1886 Extra Light takedown model features the 22" round barrel, 1/2 mag, plain pistol grip and shotgun butt. Another thing is the excellent picture itself. Kirk takes outstanding photographs and we sure appreciate him sharing this one.

Thanks Kirk!
