Manufactured in 1900. The barrel is equipped with Lyman beaded blade front and Lyman two leaf folding rear sights and is marked with the two-line address/patent date marking on top and the two-line nickel steel marking followed by "30 WCF" on the left side. It has a button magazine and finely checkered forearm and pistol grip stock fitted with hard rubber factory grip cap and shotgun buttplate. The left side of the lower tang and stock inlet are marked "16943."

Excellent, retaining 95% plus bright original high polish blue finish showing some light speckling of brown mostly on the receiver. 97% original case colors remain on the hammer and lever, and 98% original niter blue remains on the loading gate. The wood is very fine with numerous shallow dents on both sides of the buttstock, some minor dings and scratches, and crisp checkering overall. Mechanically excellent. A highly attractive Model 1894 extra lightweight short rifle that will surely be a welcome addition to any Winchester collection.
