Winchester, Model 53 TAKE-DOWN, CAL: 44 WCF, MFG: 1924, SN: 362, Lever Action Rifle, 22'' Tapered round barrel. Half mag. In 1924, Winchester introduced the Model 53 lever-action rifle as a more modern version of the model 1892. Production lasted just 8 yrs until 1932, with limited production of approximately 25,000. This rifle is a 1st year production, early 3 digit SN. The original straight grip wood stocks are very good, with minor surface scrapes, contusions & flaking finish on the buttstock next to the buttplate. The majority of the forend finish flaked away or was stripped & was nicely refinished. The metal blue finish on the barrel rates 95%, with small scrapes at the area of the takedown lever. The receiver blue rates 75%, with thinning wear at the handling points & belly of the receiver, which is toning to a light brown/gun metal grey patina. Bore is excellent & bright, with proud rifling. The barrel holds an adjustable rear sight & low profile front sight. Buttstock carries a grooved metal buttplate. A nice looking example of a first year, take-down 53' in the very desirable 44 WCF. FFL or C&R Req. - Value: 1500 to 3000
