This video features Brownells Gun Techs™ Keith and Steve at Rock Island Auction Co. showcasing a rare Winchester Model 1876 rifle, specifically the "1 of 100" variant. They explain its historical context, its development as a stretched and beefed-up Model 1873 to handle larger cartridges like the .45-75 Winchester, and its position relative to the "1 of 1,000" models. The video highlights the "1 of 100" as a more practical, working rifle compared to the highly decorated "1 of 1,000," despite fewer of them being produced and their current high market value. The featured rifle shows significant "honest" wear from extensive use.
