1894 Winchester .30
I have a model 1894 Winchester .30 WCF, serial #62825. Has pat. Aug. 21, 1894, made in New haven, Conn. I would say it is in fair to good condition. It works. Can you tell me when it was made and the value? Thanks for any help.

Re: 1894 Winchester .30
Welcome Swan! How about some pics? If I looked up the Ser# right it is a 1896 model. Edit: I mean made in 1896.

Re: 1894 Winchester .30
As you can see my little digital doesn't take very good pic. It has a 20" barrell, there is a D stamped behind the trigger on bottom plate. Looks to me somebody refinished and reblued it.

Re: 1894 Winchester .30
Is it possible to take a pic of the whole gun?

Re: 1894 Winchester .30
I will give it a try but you won't have a good closeup full length. This 70 year old female isn't too smart with those fancy cameras.

Re: 1894 Winchester .30
I think I can see from the pictures the gun has been refinished and the gun appears to be very tired. I would say it is worth about $250.00.

Re: 1894 Winchester .30
Looks like the extra light model. Does it have a saddle ring?

Re: 1894 Winchester .30
There is a metal thing there but can not see how a ring would attach to it. There is no hole thur the thing on rear of plate near the butt. My son says it doesn't feel light weight and it has a kick to it.

Re: 1894 Winchester .30
Thank you for all your help. At least I know it was made in 1896.
