The Winchester Model 1873 / Re: Shipping
« Last post by 1961MJS on Today at 08:11:16 PM »Your dealer has a poor memory. There has always been an outer box. They have various size outer boxes depending on how many rifles, but the single rifle outer box fits very tightly around the white box. The outer box has the Cimarron logo on it, as Cliff mentioned, for the last number of years, but even before that there was always an outer brown box.
I always recommend removing the stock before shipping any long gun. The tang area is easily cracked if pressure is applied to the center area of the box, even if properly packed.
HI
And my dealer was nice enough to give me the outer box when I picked mine up.
