Gun Show Find Winchester Low Wall 22 Long
« on: February 03, 2019, 10:23:39 AM »


There isn't a place specifically for Single Shots, so I will post this here:

The Livingston gun  show is this weekend, I went early Friday with a couple friends and when I got there, I was told about a Winchester low wall that was stamped "W.F. Sheard, Livingston, Montana." I looked at it and it is an original half round half octagon in 22 Long. Not many of those around and the bore is shiney, so I bought it. Gophers are only a month away from seeing the wrong end of the Winchester...







I never considered myself a failure...I started out at the bottom and happen to like it here!

Very cool! Longs can be hard to find, will it chamber Long Rifles? Or you could just use shorts.

I have a bunch of 22 long, I also have a Winchester 1873 in 22 long. I have several other Sheard marked guns as well in Winchester 1876 45-75, 1886 Winchester 1886 40-65 and a Marlin 1889 in 44-40...

Nice couch. Well, OK, the Sheard marked rifles are nice too. That '76 is stunning...
