The chaps who made it waaay back in the 1890s would have no idea it would be as good as new (if not better) after 130 years!
BTW, how does it work?

Almost more than 2 years back I had acquired this historic Winchester 1892 in 44 WCF. It was in a pretty good condition for its age however, I sincerely believed it could do better.
Allow me to share that this is a pretty rare Winchester with London Proof House Markings. The serial number look-up disclosed that this particular unit was made in year 1911.

Here is how it looked before I gave it some love.

Damn Jibz bhai. I missed this thread.. As usual a fantastic job you have done.. The classic lines of austere elegance bear mute testimony to your many long hours of elbow grease and sheer hard work!

And this is how it turned out after Restoration.
