The 1895 model features a cocking indicator visible through a hole at the top of the bolt. Both the 1895 and the 1899/99 models are equipped with a distinctive rotary magazine that utilizes a spring-loaded spool with grooves and a counter to indicate the number of rounds loaded. This design allowed the use of spitzer bullets, which were incompatible with the tubular magazines of Winchester rifles of the era due to the risk of accidental discharge from pointed tips.
