1948 Winchester Model 70

412-204-7493

If you go online and Check out the Trophy Room of Winchesterguns.com you will see pictures of proud hunters and their game.  You will also see a significant trend, the rifle used for most was a Win. Model 70.                                                  

It doesn’t happen often that a firearm has the endurance to celebrate its 75th Anniversary. The Winchester Model 70 earned it in 2012, with thousands of sportsmen the world over having relied on its smooth-handling Pre-‘64 style action and legendary accuracy. We are lucky enough to have a 1948 Winchester Model 70 and it’s case in our current auction. See Item 94. This is more than a rifle and a piece of history.
This rifle is a piece of art. Please notice the craftsmanship and the graining of the monte carlo stock; we believe this to be a custom stock and not the original stock..

We want to credit the fine people at Winchesterguns.com for this illustration.
An advertisement used in the 1898 says it best.


Happy Bidding!
