RARE WINCHESTER MODEL 1876 SADDLE RING CARBINE SHIPPED TO THE FAMOUS NORTH WEST MOUNTIES IN 1885.

SN 44465. 45-75 Cal. Standard grade carbine with 22″ bbl, barleycorn fixed front sight and carbine ladder rear sight. Receiver is 3rd type with milled rail and 3rd type dust cover. It has a stud and carbine ring in the left side. Mounted with uncheckered straight grain American walnut with full length forearm, steel nose cap and single band. Buttstock has straight grip and carbine buttplate. This carbine was purchased by the Canadian Northwest Mounted Police per factory letter and shipped as one of 300 guns shipped April 8, 1885. This was a very popular carbine in its day, being the first carbine to handle the large bore cartridges. The Northwest Mounties saw very hard service and their arms are rarely found in fine condition today. There are several letters concerning this gun which state this gun was found in an old trapper’s cabin in what may have originally been the jail house for Trout Lake City, British Columbia. Regardless this is a wonderful “as found” 76 carbine that saw service in the Canadian Northwest. PROVENANCE: Leo Goodwin, Revelstoke, B.C. Mark Nordland, Powell, WY 1984. Lewis Yearout 2000. Estate Collection of Lewis & Leyton Yearout. CONDITION: Very good to fine overall. Gun retains traces of finish on frame and bbl. Bbl address markings and cal markings are crisp and well defined and discerned. Stocks are well fit with typical small blemishes and several large dents as can be seen in photographs. Hand worn patina. Mechanically gun functions well with good discernible rifling in bore though pitted. 4-53840 JS107 (5,000-7,000) – Lot 2065
