“Collector”! Winchester 1873 .44-40 manufactured in 1902 (allegedly) used by John Pershing. Examined by High Caliber History’s Logan Metesh. Original Blued finish, 25%, Wood furniture 15%, overall 20%. Mechanics: Good, Matching numbers, Rifle is authentic. Honest example, but very rough condition with parts missing. The ledger that accompanies the gun isn't historic, it's just a previous collector's inventory notes. As such, ledger history is unverifiable. Please see photos. C&R
