Project Description

!!!!!SOLD!!!!!  This is a 47% scale Winchester 1866 carbine made by Uberti in Italy.  18 3/4″ long overall with a 9″ rifled round barrel of .21 caliber.  These are often referred to as the Winchester “Yellow Boy” carbines because of their brass receiver, sideplates, and buttplate.  Straight grained walnut buttstock and forearm with high gloss varnished finish and some nice grain contrast.  Gold plated brass receiver, sideplates, buttplate and cleaning rod trapdoor.  High polish blue steel barrel, magazine, lever, bands, etc.  The carbine buttplate with the sliding trapdoor for a cleaning rod (cleaning rod not included).  The hammer sides polished in the white, the hammer spur finely checkered.  Serial number “345” stamped into the lower tang.  This carbine would have been at the very end of production.  “A. Uberti – Italy” stamped into the top of the barrel ahead of the rear sight.  The rear sight is a two leaf flip type.  Full magazine & carbine buttplate.  Beautiful craftsmanship and typical Uberti high quality.  Near mint new condition with just a few small handling marks, I’d call it 99.5%.  !!!!!SOLD!!!!!
