Description

I have for sale a hard to find Winchester Model 47, bolt action single shot 22 rimfire Produced from 1948 – 1954 with only 43,123 produced. This Winchester has a typical tight grained walnut stock with a few nicks and dents from being my Aunts garden gun (see pictures). The bluing has some small blemishes and light spots, but for being over 70 years old it’s still not bad. The model 47 had a few unique features. The first and most notable is the use of an automatic safety, When the bolt is retracted for loading, the safety is automatically engaged, as is the cocking mechanism. The model 47 is also the only pre-1964 Winchester bolt action .22 to feature a red “fire ready” indicator.The rifle is chambered in .22 Short & Long Rifle caliber and had a built in feeding system so that a cartridge could be dropped into the ejection window and reliably fed into the chamber. The safety lever, trigger and bolt were all chrome plated. The bolt featured twin extractors, with a firing pin that protruded from the top of the bolt face. This is considered a highly desirable collector rifle if you are a Winchester enthusiast. $325 cash OBO WITH PROPER IDAHO ID AND OF LEGAL AGE. Thanks for looking!
