I have just aquired a Winchester Model 1906 22 rifle made in 1909. Looks very nice, 80% or better, and shoots well in shorts and long rifle. Is this a keeper or a collector or what?? Steve 48

If it was me, even though it wouldnt be fun...I wouldnt be shooting it , it would be more of a "show" gun, id put it on display somewhere..Over a fireplace...door entrance..etc
But thats just me :)

I guess it would depend on the cosmetic look of the gun. If it's good looking, then display it. But if not, ah just beat the heck out of it :) . KIDDING. If it's not worth displaying, then don't.  :D
