Serial # 95688

Manufactured in 1918 based on its factory serialization records, this historic long gun holds a significant place in firearms engineering as America's very first commercially successful semi-automatic rimfire rifle. Specifically designed by legendary Winchester engineer T.C. Johnson, it is chambered exclusively for the vintage .22 Winchester Automatic cartridge�a unique rimfire round created specifically to prevent early smokeless powder pressures from being used in standard black powder firearms of the era. Utilizing a smooth, blowback-operated mechanical system and a classic tubular magazine fed directly through a port in the right side of the walnut buttstock, this early 20th-century milestone rifle beautifully balances antique industrial heritage with timeless mechanical utility.
