Do Winchester make Model 52 falling block single shot? 0 -
The Wichester Model 52 is a bolt action Type pre A -D is a repeater type E is a bolt action single shot Stevens did make more the two single shots the falling blocks were the 44 and 44&1/2 but they made fancy models on both of these action types including some called a model 52. 0 -
At one time you could buy Winchester 52 barrels and I have seen them on many different single-shot actions. Yesterday I looked at a Winchester high-wall (1885) single shot that had a 52 barrel on it. 0 -
I saw a Stevens with a Remington barrel on another board recently.
Back in the day people learned to make do with what was available. And gunsmiths worked cheap, relative to what you got.0 -
When the M52 was introduced one of the selling points was that it used the same barrel as the M1885. 0 -

That is correct... more specifically, it used the same barrel that was used for the .22 caliber Winder Muskets.0 -

No, they did not. The falling block action was only used on the Model 1885 Single Shot rifles.0
