Lever ActionProduced between the 1936 and the 1957, with important technical variations to the previous Model 1886 designed by John M. and Matthew S. Browning, it is identified as the first rifle chambered for a specific cartridge (.348 WCF) as well as for the last "big frame" lever action rifle produced by Winchester. Advertised as The Universal Big-Game Rifle, the Model 71 was welcomed with enthusiasm by the big game hunters. Our company is particularly proud to produce this famous rifle of the first half of the twentieth century, chambered for a well known historical cartridge which is today easily available, with a limiting 3 shot plug for the magazine. Barrel and magazine plug blue finish; walnut pistol grip stock and forend. Available in the Fall of 2010 S.740
