This is one of the finest 1/2 scale Winchester Model 1873 octagon barreled rifles made by master miniature maker Mike Barrett of Minnesota that I have ever seen. Absolutely 100% fully functional! 19 7/16" long overall with a 10 1/16" rifled octagon barrel of .22 caliber. Beautifully scroll engraved frame, sideplates, fore end cap, lever, dust cover, & buttplate. Two gold bands inlaid into both the muzzle & breech ends of the barrel as well as the muzzle end of the magazine tube. Finely checkered hammer spur. The crescent buttplate with the sliding trapdoor for the cleaning rod which is not included. The receiver, sideplates, buttplate, & screws are silver plated. The magazine support, fore arm cap, loading gate, hammer, lever, dust cover, trigger, cartridge lifter, and buttplate trap are gold plated. The barrel, magazine tube, front sight, rear sight, & rear sight elevator are nicely polished & blued. The barrel with the Winchester barrel address in two lines. The upper receiver tang with the "MODEL 1873" markings. The bottom of the cartridge lifter marked "44 CAL". Unlike most Barrett's, this piece has the functional extractor and centerfire firing pin! I believe this to be one of his earlier works. I do not know who engraved or plated this piece, but I will call Mike and see if he knows. If I can obtain any further information, I'll post it as soon as I can. A great candidate for a NRA silver medal!

This is a neat pair of miniature pill lock jailer's key guns. I believe these to be 1/2 scale and 1/4 scale. The smaller one measures 2 7/16" long overall with a 15/16" barrel. The larger one measures 4 15/16" long overall with a 2" barrel. Construction on both are the same with the key made of brass. The hammers and triggers are steel. The small one was made by master miniature maker Ron DeWalt and is marked RDon the left side of the handle of the key. It has fire blued hammer & trigger and a nice original DeWalt glass topped walnut casing. The interior is French fit with a red felt lining. The larger one the maker is unknown. The hammer and trigger are a dark patina brown, there is no case, and it could possibly be antique.
