winchester model 94 .32 win sp - The Firearms Forum

I have a winchester model 94 .32 winchester special. it was made in 1929 with the serial number 1070xx. there is little bluing on the action, most of it's on the flat pieces on the sides. it's nonexistent on the botton and on the top and a little on the lever. there is bluing on the top of the barrel and and none on the bottom of the tube. wood is in decent condition with no major dents and few small dents and has metal but plate. I'm not gonna sell it I just wanna know how much it would be worth

Serial # 1070XX was made early in 1901.

You need a firearms evaluator to look at it. A good one in prime shape can be well over $1,000 especially if its all original but it also could just go for barely $500, hard to say without seeing it. Mine is from the 20's but I bought it with most of the working parts in a coffee can and it was rusty. I had to replace a couple of pins and reblued it so I ditched any value it had but it's a shooter and it has been going out to the woods with me for deer hunting since I loaned out my .308. I have been classified as a heathen because if it works I am going to shoot it.

How do you know it was made in 1901 I looked it up and it and it said 29 or is it different serial codes years for the different calibers

@shadowfox853 .... I suggest you check the number of digits in your serial number ... 1929 build-year does not look correct.

The place you looked it up, was most likely using the old information that Madis compiled. The 1901 date comes from the Winchester polishing room records at the Cody Museum.
