This
is a 47% scale Winchester Model 1866 octagon barrel rifle by Uberti in Italy. 20 1/2" long overall with a 11 7/16"
.21 caliber rifled barrel. All steel parts are nicely blued and 99.9%. The brass parts are all gold plated as
is normal for the Uberti 66's. The wood is highly figured French walnut with beautiful cross grain figure.
Serial # 294 is stamped into the lower tang. Full magazine, crescent buttplate with the trap door for a cleaning rod
(rod not included). Checkered hammer spur, the sides of the hammer polished and in the white. The rear sight has

the breech as are all of the Uberti rifles. The condition is good with a small blemish to the gold plating on the left
rear of the frame, and several small handling marks in the wood. Uberti 1866 octagon barrel rifles are scarce as they
were probably less than 10% of production, most of the production being round barrel carbines. Photo 2, Photo 3, Photo 4, Photo 5, Photo 6, Photo 7, Photo 8, Photo 9, Photo 10, Photo 11, Photo 12, Photo 13, Photo 14, Photo 15, Photo 16, Photo 17, Photo 18, Photo 19 Price:
