An elder gentleman from my church recently told me he had an 1883 Winchester in 45-90. His great uncle was the original owner, and it has always been in his family. He says that it is in excellent condition, and is going to shoot it when he goes to Colorado for the summer (to avoid the heat and humidity in Tejas). Hopefully, I'll get to take a look see at it this Sunday after church...if'n he hasn't left for the Rockies.
