Winchester Repeating Arms Company was founded in 1866. It originated from the New Haven Arms Company, which was established in 1856, and was acquired by Oliver Winchester. The company became famous for its lever-action rifles, particularly the Winchester Model 1873, often referred to as "the gun that won the West."
