hello my fello firing pins. I'm having a problim finding the serial on this gun,
Short of tearing it down it's not there. Here's all the INFO I could find on it.
(On the Barrel)-made in new Haven Conn. U.S. of America
Wnchester-Model 94-30 W.C.F.
Winchester Proof Steel-Trade Mark

(Behind Hammer) Model 1894
Winchester (the letters "WIN" worn off)
Trade Mark reg. US Pat. & FGN.
It also has what looks like a (PW) stamped in a small circle at th back of the barrel it also has a cresent moon stamp in between two half circles like this( ) The barrel is round 19in long, lever action w/saddle ring the bluing is OK, maybe 70%. The stock has lots of scraches and dings from use, patina in tack. All in all the gun is in good shape I also have the leather saddle holster, looks orig.
Well fellas thats all I have, I hope someone can help,

Some one should be along shortly that may have the serial number list.
I had just wanted to make sure you gave the outside meausurement and come up with 19 the barrel should actually be a 20 inch if the inside lenght was 19 inches then some might have took a saw to it and ruined the collector standpoint
