Cabelas Kansas City has three boxed Model 61's. Probably left overs from Mr. Keys? 
  

That apparently is where this one came from according to the seller.

It was shared with me that a certain Winchester author from Kansas has been associated with questionable individuals responsible for "rare" Model 61 rifles in the past... so Kansas may see a larger percentage of these.  I've seen several questionable "Boxed" Model 61's at the Tulsa show on the lower level, middle of the room near the food vendors... Caveat Emptor
  

Ben,

There is nothing wrong with sharing that name... C.H. Key.  It is my understanding that he is no longer among us.

I have traced more than a few such rifles back to a seller out of Sublette, KS. who was selling them for C.H. Key.  Some of them are in this thread of mine.  The online selling of them has definitely slowed in the past few years as they were being exposed.  https://winchestercollector.org/forum/winchester-22-rim-fire/faked-altered-model-61-rifle-listing/

At the time the estate had quit a few 61's and 62's. I would have to believe the seller bought the gun the way it is shown.
