The Winchester 1885 Low Wall of today
is a careful reproduction of one of the original
configurations. You can take pride in owning one
of the finest, most accurate rifles ever produced.
The massive breech block design
is one reason the Model 1885 has
proven so accurate
A special internal hanger system
allows the forearm to be free floating
so it will not affect accuracy
When the lever is cycled forward, the
hammer actually drops down
out of the way, making loading and
unloading very convenient
Traditional three-position
hammer: dropped, half cock
and full cock
Drilled and tapped for
scope mounts
(Available separately)
Cartridge ejector
system and shell
deflector
