Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Winchester Model 61 was an American slide-action .22 caliber rimfire rifle produced by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company from 1932 to 1963. Winchester's first hammerless slide-action rifle design, the Model 61 acted as a "replacement" for the Model 62. In the early 1910s, Winchester rifles such as the exposed-hammer Model 1906 were the darlings of the slide-action smallbore rifle segment; however, the introduction of hammerless designs by competitors such as Remington and Marlin helped decrease market shares of the Winchester design, due to the hammerless designs' more streamlined looks along with dirt being less prone to entering the action due to the lack of an exposed hammer.

By the 1930s, the Great Depression was in full swing, and each competitor, Winchester included, attempted to capture every last bit of market share. It was around this time when certain consumers commented on the Model 1906's design as old-fashioned due to the exposed hammer, and as such, Winchester had to come up with a newer hammerless design to keep up with trends and to attract new customers during the Depression.

The new design became known as the Model 61 soon after and was introduced on the market in 1932. Advertised as a rifle for general all-round sporting use, the Model 61 was later advertised as a "boy's rifle" to capitalize on that market as well. Sales of the Model 61 were moderately strong, although sales were not as strong as other competitors as they already had a foothold in that market. Production ended in 1963 with some 343,976 produced.
