Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Winchester Model 63 is a classic semi-automatic .22 rifle that exemplifies Winchester’s craftsmanship and innovation during the mid-20th century. Chambered in .22 Long Rifle and finished in polished blue, this example features a 23-inch barrel and bead blade front with adjustable rear sights, providing a balanced sight picture ideal for small-game hunting, target shooting, or recreational plinking. The rifle’s smooth hardwood buttstock and forearm reflect the traditional styling of early Winchester semi-automatics while offering comfortable handling and durability. A notable feature of this model is the left-side barrel stamp reading: “WINCHESTER / TRADEMARK / MADE IN U.S.A. – MODEL 63 .22 LONG RIFLE / SUPER SPEED AND SUPER-X”, which emphasizes its authenticity and the Winchester brand’s reputation for quality. Its semi-automatic action, combined with the innovative operating sleeve—a knurled rod extending from the forearm used to chamber rounds or extract unfired cartridges—makes the rifle both historically significant and mechanically interesting. Introduced in 1933 to replace the Model 1903, the Model 63 was Winchester’s first semi-automatic rifle chambered for the standard .22 Long Rifle cartridge. Featuring the square receiver that became a hallmark of early Winchester semi-autos, and an uncheckered walnut forearm and pistol-grip buttstock, the rifle quickly gained popularity for its reliability, smooth operation, and classic styling. Production continued steadily through the 1930s until World War II, when Winchester shifted its focus to wartime manufacturing. The Model 63 remained in the catalog until 1958, with a total of 174,692 units produced in New Haven. Today, the Model 63 is prized both as a functional rimfire rifle and a collectible piece of Winchester history, representing the company’s transition into modern semi-automatic rimfire firearms.
