Research the history of Winchester arms and compile a list of rifles that you would like to collect. By having the list of models, you will find searching for these rifles a much easier task.
Search the Internet for your desired Winchester rifles. The Internet has made finding information, products and antiques a much easier process, and finding collectible Winchester rifles is no exception. Your most promising results will most likely be found on the Internet auction sites specifically catering to firearms. Firearms purchases through Internet web sites require the assistance of a local federally licensed (FFL) gun dealer. The firearm will be sent through a dealer in the seller's area to a dealer in your area.
Call or visit gun shops and attend gun shows. A good number of gun shops have used guns for sale, often resulting from trade-ins. Most gun dealers would be happy to answer your questions concerning the availability of Winchester .22 rifles in their stores (at least if they are interested in selling them). Gun shows are another venue were collectible rifles are commonly found.
Join some of the firearm forums found on the Internet and express your interest in collecting Winchester .22 caliber rifles. These forums provide excellent opportunities to not only find members who are interested in selling their rifles but in finding information about where to find collectible Winchester rifles.
