My girlfriend told me she has a Winchester 1776.
I couldn't find any info about it online. Anybody know anything about it or pictures?
 
I would think 1876 too, but she just clarified that it's 1776. Model 1776?

Must be one of those very rare Winchester lever-action flintlocks[smile]
Seriously, Winchester wasn't around in 1776.
The first Win. lever action was the model 1866 (.44 RF)
The Model 1876 is the long-action version of the famous Model '73.
Of course, Winchester has made a ton of wackey M94 commemoratives.
I wonder if one of them was some sort of 1776 commemorative?

Yep! found a couple of "USA Bicentennial 1976" commemoratives on GunsAmerica.
