Item description:

Make: Winchester
Model: 1894
Caliber: 30 WCF
Action: Lever
Barrel: 26
Bore: Shiny
Serial # 162525
Condition: Good
Manufactured in 1898 as per serial number. The Winchester Model 1894 rifle followed the other John Browning designed lever action rifles to become one of the most famous and popular hunting rifles of all time. It was the first commercial sporting rifle to sell over 7,000,000 units, making the name “Winchester” synonymous with all lever action rifles. It was also the first commercial American repeating rifle built to be used with smokeless powder. It was introduced in 1894 in two black powder cartridges, the .32-40 and .38-55 Win. rounds, but by the next year Winchester had developed a different steel composition that could handle higher pressures, and the .30-30 Win. family of cartridges was born. Not only was it a success, but as of 1983 it held the record for the best-selling center-fire rifle in U.S. history. 5,103,249 Winchester 1894’s and 94’s were produced from 1894 to 1983. It is in its original patina with a brownish tint, dark walnut forend and stock with curved steel buttplate, blade front and buckhorn rear sights, and a 26” octagonal barrel with full length magazine tube. There are some scratches and dings on the wood furniture . Please see photos. No FFL in most states.
