First introduced in 1982, Winchester Ranger slide action shotguns became an overnight marketing success story. By pro- viding consumers with basic quality -made firearms at economical prices, the Com- pany began competing in a new marketing arena. Seasoned sportsmen began to add to their collection of firearms and new hunters found that they could afford to enter into the shooting sports. By 1985, the Winchester Ranger line was expanded to include no - frill, economy grade semi-automatic shotguns, deer guns, youth slide action models, and centerfire bolt actions. The expanded 1985 line of Winchester Ranger firearms will now include a Ranger Youth bolt action centerfire carbine in 223 Rem. and 243 Winchester calibers. and a slide-action shotgun in 20 gauge with ven- tilated rib barrel and the Winchoke system of interchangeable choke tubes. Both guns have been scaled down in size and are designed for the younger and smaller hunters as well as women. The Winchester Ranger bolt action Wenterfire re will now be offered in 270 riffle inchester, 30-06 Springfield, and 7 mm Rem. Mag. This rifle gives price -conscious sportsmen the performance and accuracy only found in higher priced bolt actions. America's favorite deer gun, the 30-30 Winchester lever action, will now ' be available in an economical Winchester Ranger version. The Ranger lever action will feature a forged steel receiver, stan- dard finger lever, exposed rebound hammer with automatic trigger -actuated safety transfer bar, reversible hammer extension for left -or right-handed use, blade front and semi-buckhorn rear sight. The traditional western styled stock and forearm are of American hardwood with a durable satin walnut finish. The Angle Eject feature per- mits top scope mounting. With its five shot magazine capacity. the new Winchester • Ranger lever action carbine is an affordable utility rifle for all-around use. For 1985, new 12 gauge versions of the Winchester Model 1300 slide action shotgun have been introduced specifically for use with waterfowl and turkey. The Model 1300 Magnum Waterfowl features a 30" ventilated rib barrel with the Winchoke sytem of interchangeable choke tubes. The walnut stock and forearm have a special low -luster finish and the receiver, barrel and exterior metal surfaces offer a non -glare matte finish to aid in hunter con- cealment. The new Model 1300 Turkey gun has a shorter 22" barrel with ventilated rib which is adapted for the-Winchoke system. This pump gun is also designed for shooter con- cealment and is furnished with non -glare matte finishes on all metal surfaces and low -luster walnut stock and forearm.
