Description:

As "the ultimate lever gun" for over a century, the Winchester Model 1894 rifle holds a special place in the hearts of collectors. This example was manufactured in 1904 and is chambered in desirable .38-55 WCF caliber. Standard Winchester marking (correctly lacking Winchester factory oval proofs). The barrel is fitted with a dovetail blade front sight and an elevation adjustable rear sight. It is mounted with a smooth forearm and straight grip stock with a crescent buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, retaining 75% original blue finish with thinning to brown on the balance. There are some scratches visible on upper tang from a removed tang sight. 50% original nitre blue remains on the loading gate. The hammer and lever retain 40% original case colors. The wood is fine with minor dings and scratches and retaining most of the original finish. Mechanically excellent.
