This impressive Winchester Model 1876 Lever-Action Rifle represents one of the most substantial and distinctive rifles produced during Winchester’s classic 19th-century era. Built on a larger and more powerful action than the Model 1873, the Model 1876 features the unmistakable Winchester profile with its exposed hammer, lever action, tubular magazine, and walnut stock and forearm. Its robust proportions and traditional styling give the rifle a commanding appearance characteristic of Winchester’s early large-frame lever actions.
Known as the “Centennial Model,” the Model 1876 combined Winchester craftsmanship with the ability to accommodate larger, more powerful cartridges than the company’s earlier toggle-link rifles. Today, original Model 1876 rifles are highly regarded for their historical character, substantial construction, and unmistakable Old West appearance, making this a handsome example of one of Winchester’s most recognizable early lever-action designs.
