Got myself a gun!
      02/02/11 09:10 AM

So, I recently had a relative pass away. The family was splitting up his possessions, and since nobody wanted his old hunting rifle, I took it.

Its a lever-action rifle made by Winchester, and thats about all I know about the gun. Its pretty old, and MOST of the engraving and stuff is gone. The "crosshatch" pattern on the hammer is completely worn off. There is no visible serial number (does that make my weapon illegal?) and it took quite a bit of squinting to be able to read that it does, indeed say "Winchester" on the gun.

My problem is...I really can't figure out what caliber bullets the gun takes :blush: Like I mentioned in my previous thread, I'm a gun noob. I've only ever fired a handful of guns and never owned my own gun.

With no visible serial number available, what would I have to do to find out information about my gun? I can post pictures if any of you could help identify it, just let me know what exactly you'd like to be photographed. I can put something like a lighter near the barrel for size comparison if that would help?

Thanks, let me know, and I'll follow up with some pictures! :]
