A little while back, I posted a Winchester handbook on the commercial version of the M1895 Lee straight-pull Navy rifle. We came across a full military manual on the rifle as well, and we’ve got it scanned for you. It has quite a bit more information on the rifle, and some good descriptive illustrations.
You can find the manual on the Original Manuals page in the Vault, or download it directly here:
