Winchester ~ Model 52B Sporting Limited Edition ~ .22 LR

Winchester Model 52B Sporting Limited Edition bolt action .22 Long Rifle. Made in Japan by Miroku circa 1997, this is a faithful reproduction of Winchester's legendary Model 52 Sportin rifle, known for its accuracy, quality workmanship, and elegant styling. This features a 24-inch blued barrel, figured walnut stock with fine checkering, contrasting black forearm tip, Monte Carlo cheekpiece, and OEM 5-round magazine. Equipped with a classic Leupold Vari-X IIc 2-7x variable power scope carrying a gloss black finish with gold ring, mounted in traditional scope rings. Condition is excellent. The blued steel retains virtually all of its original finish, with no significant wear visible. The figured walnut stock is well-preserved, showing only a small scuff in the checkering on the left side of the forearm and a couple of very light handling scratches. The bore is clean and bright and the action is smooth. Comes with the original red Winchester factory box with handwritted serial number matching the rifle, original Model 52B owners manual, and factory Limited Edition hang tag. The box shows some storage and shelf wear, with the paperwork is well preserved. (PLEASE NOTE: in the photo of the muzzle there is a small red dot on the steel which could appear to be rust. it is not. It is a reflection of a red light on the front of our camera.)
