Hello, this item is an antique Winchester Model 1873 lever-action rifle chambered in .45-60, with a shortened or carbine-length 23-inch barrel configuration and serial number 34916, which places production in the late 1870s. The rifle shows the classic Winchester lever-action frame, tubular magazine, walnut stock and forearm, and aged blued steel surfaces with patina, handling wear, and oxidation consistent with a 19th-century working firearm. The .45-60 chambering is a desirable large-frame Winchester caliber associated with the early black powder period, and the model itself remains one of the most collectible American repeating rifles of the frontier era.

The market value depends heavily on mechanical function, bore condition, factory letter confirmation, originality of the barrel length, and whether all major parts match the original factory configuration. Based on the photographs, the rifle appears complete but worn, with visible finish loss and age-related surface wear, while the wood remains presentable. If the 23-inch barrel configuration can be confirmed as factory original, value increases substantially. Without factory confirmation, collectors may treat the barrel as altered, which reduces value. Fair market value is $2,500 to $4,500 USD.
