This is one of several variations of the most successful centerfire rifle ever produced by Winchester: the Model 1894. This example was manufactured in 1898 with standard markings, the takedown feature, blade front and adjustable rear sporting sights, full length magazine, tang mounted peep sight with folding peep and screw elevation adjustment, and smooth straight grip stock and forearm.

Very good. The barrel and magazine tube retain half of the slightly faded original finish with some edge wear. The frame has an overall mottled gray-brown patina with traces of the original blue finish visible. The buttplate has a mottled brown patina. The re-oiled wood is very good with a chip absent on the upper tang at the juncture with the frame and most of the glossy varnish retained and some minor scratches and dings. Mechanically excellent with clear markings.
