In 1975, the Dawson City Historical Society authorized Winchester to produce the Klondike Gold Rush Commemorative Rifle. This special rifle commemorates the Klondike Gold Rush of 1898, with an extended forearm and a straight grip stock made of satin-finished American walnut. The buttstock is square-combed and features a gold-finished wrap-around buttplate. It appears to be new and may have been test fired.
The round barrel is inscribed with "Klondike Commemorative" in gold finish and accented with gold-plated barrel bands. The front sight consists of a ramp and hood, with a semi-buckhorn in the rear.
On the left side of the gold-plated receiver, there is an engraving of a prospector panning for gold, along with the inscription "The Great Gold Strike 1896." The right side of the receiver features a pick-ax and a pan of gold nuggets with the inscription "Bonanza · Eldorado · Hunter Creek." The upper tang is inscribed with "Model 1894 Winchester."
A gold-plated medallion depicting three prospectors with packs climbing a mountain is embedded on the right side of the buttstock. The medallion bears the legend "Klondike Gold Rush 1898 The Chilkoot Pass".
The serial number of the rifle is prefixed with "Krg" and is located on the front underside of the receiver. Cobourg produced a total of 10,200 rifles.
