Winchester Model 1894 Lever Action Rifle
serial #297173, 38-55, 26'' round barrel with a full magazine and a very good bore showing light oxidation but strong rifling throughout. The barrel retains about 65% original blue, appearing stronger under ambient light, with general light thinning toning to brown, silvering at the muzzle, and scattered freckling and light handling marks throughout; the magazine retains about 95% blue with scattered light handling marks, with its hanger worn to a gray patina. The receiver has worn to a gray patina with undertones of brown, strong remnants of original blue still present in the protected areas, with cleaning striations, pinprick pitting, and overall pinprick pitting, and the lever has largely toned to gray-brown but still shows strong remnants of vibrant case-color in protected areas. The straight grip walnut stock and forend are in very good plus condition with a tight 1/4'' crack at the rear of the upper tang, a few light dings on the butt, and scattered light handling marks; the forend cap and curved steel buttplate have toned to gray with light oxidation staining. The two-line barrel address, tang markings, and other factory markings are intact and readily legible, and some of the screws show light slot wear. The rifle is sighted with a beaded blade front sight and a flattop sporting-style rear sight. An honest Model 1894 rifle with plenty of life left in it. (14A11762-8) {C&R} (800/1200)
