All, as to the display case shown in this pic, this is modern, yes? Something doesn’t look right as to it being an older, classic Winchester display.

Modern creation… I wouldn’t mind it in my office filled with Winchester .22’s.   But as a “authentic” investment, no.

Exactly what I figured. They appear at this guy’s auctions and he never runs them through although they are “for sale”…I figured that alone meant it was not a classic piece or it would be gone. (Although he always has some nice original guns!)

Same here, I’d restain it and put it in my office!
