Payment Types Accepted: Credit Card, Certified Check, Money Order Description: 1898 Antique WINCHESTER Model 1894 LEVER ACTION .30-30 WCF RIFLE Iconic Repeater Made in 1898 in New Haven, Connecticut Here we present an antique Winchester Model 1894 Lever Action Rifle, made in 1898 in New Haven, Connecticut. The credit for the design of such a prolific firearm again lies with John Moses Browning, who lent his extensive design talents to a large number of weapon types throughout his career. The Model 1894 was the first Winchester rifle made for use with the new technology of smokeless powder and was developed as a hunting rifle. Over 7.5 million were produced from 1894 until 2006. While various cartridges were supported throughout the run of the gun, the .30-30 Winchester became its staple. In practical use, the Model 1894 became a favorite for general shooters and hunters alike. To this day, it remains a deer hunting favorite, and, in all likelihood, more deer have been taken with the 1894 than any other. The overall condition is good. Patina throughout. The action is excellent. The bore is in very good condition: reflective with strong rifling. The walnut stock shows use and remains solid. Front and rear sights are replacements. It looks like there was once a peep sight mounted on the receiver tang. Here is an early example of the famous and prolific Winchester 1894 chambered in the first smokeless cartridge/rifle combination they produced! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 26 inches. Caliber: .30 Winchester Center Fire (.30-30) Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe.
