Took the junkie old S&W DA .44 to the Bossier gun show today to see if it would bring more than the sum of its parts. Within the hour it cleared above the sum of its parts plus the little Browning designed Trombone Winchester .22.
A model 1906, manufactured 1911. It was an improved and more economical version of the hugely successful Winchester Model 1890. This particular gun is all original retaining 100% of it's original parts. It rates NRA Antique Very Good with 20% of the original bluing remaining, though thin and turned grey / brown overall. It is free of pitting and smooth over all with sharp edges and lettering. Wood shows well without cracks, but with minor dings and dents. The bore is mirror bright and the action is tight with smooth function.
