Greetings! If I could get some opinions on this late Model 8, I acquired it from a long time friend who is not a gun guy, it was his uncles. Apologies, but I am a Winchester collector, so a bit in the dark on these. I believe it has been refinished, but it’s a very nice job, great condition. And it was free.
Thx
Steve G.

Re: Newly Acquired Model 8
What is the chambering? What is it's date of manufacture?
From what I see in the two photos, it looks like you have a very nice Model 8, for a really nice price . Refinished, but again, it looks nice from the photo.
There is lots of information on this site, and lots of knowledge with the guys on this forum.

Nice rifle, cant beat the price.
Re: Newly Acquired Model 8
When you get a chance check the production numbers. These are more rare than 95% of the winchesters.
Know what I mean?

Re: Newly Acquired Model 8
A date code of DB would make it a September 1933 manufacture.
