Cimarron 1886 Rifle .45-70 Gov 26″ Octagon Barrel

The 1886 model, patented by John Browning in 1884 was brought to Winchesters attention while the two companies were negotiating for manufacturing rights to the 1885 High Wall and Low Wall. The 1886 was to become Winchesters Big Game repeater, often seeing action in Africa, and became Theodore Roosevelts favorite until it ceased production in 1932. Today, original 86s in good condition bring a big premium from hunters and collectors.
