Description:

Manufactured in 1907. The top barrel flat ahead of the rear sight is marked with the two line address/1894 patent date, the left rear flat is marked with the two line nickel steel smokeless powder marking and "32 W.S." at the breech. The Winchester oval proof is marked on the top flat and receiver at the breech. A sighting groove has been cut into the front top of the receiver through the proof. The upper tang is marked "MODEL 1894/WINCHESTER/TRADE MARK" and the serial number is on the bottom of the receiver. Blade front and adjustable rear sporting sights, casehardened forend cap, hammer, lever and buttplate, with blue remaining parts. Mounted with a smooth walnut forearm and straight grip stock with a crescent buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Very good as partially refinished. The rifle retains 40% original blue finish with some minor scattered pitting on the barrel and receiver, and areas of gray patina. The remaining surfaces have a mottled gray patina with some pin prick type pitting on the forend cap and minor pitting on the buttplate. The upper tang screws are replacements and it appears that a tang sight had been mounted there at one time. The wood has been lightly sanded and refinished with a few minor dings and scratches. The markings are clear. The action is fine.
