The Winchester Model 131 is a magazine fed bolt action repeater. The magazine holds 7 rounds. Unlike the model 121 the safety is manual and it is not turned on when a round is loaded. The safety may be on or off when a round is loaded. Incorrect assembly of the safety mechanism on the Model 131 can cause accidental discharge and failure of the safety mechanism by allowing the safety mechanism to walk on the retaining bolt. Verify the safe operation of the safety mechanism before operating this firearm. This firearm was also sold as a Sears Model 2C and should be given the same consideration.
The 135 was similar to the 131 but was in a .22 W.M.R caliber.
The Winchester Model 141 is a tubular feed bolt action repeater through the butt of the stock.
