Hi JeremyI don’t see it in the survey.
perfect! here’s the details from my spreadsheet, lmk if you need anything else…I’m pretty sure the lyman didn’t letter but I’d have to check my records later.
40996 | Winchester | 1895 rifle | lever | .35 Win | 1903 | 24″ | With side mount Lyman #21 rear peep sight |
Hi
Thank you for the information. I didn’t have that serial number recorded before. I looked at the RIA listing to see the rest. Wondering if the buttstock was replaced at some time also. Thanks again.

It’s definitely been to bubba’s shop, but it doesn’t shoot bad.
Thanks,

Hey Guys I recently rescued an 1895 serial #63530 standard rifle in 405.
High condition—very well preserved
steel buttplate shotgun style
Lyman 21 rear sight
standard looking ramp and dovetailed front
Marbles Sheard gold bead sight
Matting on the top/front of the reciever
The 24 inch barrel appears to be of high quality but is definitely not OEM
no upper proof mark—stamped 405 WCF on top
underside of barrel — AP DUNN 988 with a clean and proper dovetail arrangement to secure the forend
I will do a little more research—there was a story about the barrel I didn’t follow up on.
Whoever did the gunsmithing was a pro—no signs of “Bubba” anywhere
