Looking for a Model 69 (not the later 69A).  The model is 6902.  Must be in 98% or better condition. Must also be factory original. No holes, re-blued, refinished or reworked guns. The factory bluing must be full original “blue”… not flaking (very common) or “brown” (also common). I will gladly pay up for the right rifle. Please, this is a very specific request… no other variation will work. Please send pics & price. Seller must actually possess the gun, be a member in good standing on this forum. Please don’t bother “phishing”. I have a C&R so it can be sent directly to me. I will also be at the Cody show next month.  Below is a pic of the “type” of 69 I am searching for.  thanks in advance. Ben

With the run you’re on, I imagine you’ll find one! Pretty intact box, good hunt! I’ll keep an eye out.

Ben,

That box was also used for the very early 69A (circa 1938).  Winchester did not initially differentiate the 69 and 69A, they were both considered catalog # G6902R.

That is a decent box but why do they all seem to have a water stain and paint spatter?  😉

Best Regards,
