Description:
1919 Mfg. WINCHESTER M1894 .30 WCF Lever Action C&R Carbine DEER HUNTER    

ICONIC Hunting/Sporting Rifle in .30-30 Caliber

Here we present a C&R Winchester Model 1894 Lever Action Carbine, made in 1919 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.

In April 1919, Winchester eliminated the “18” and “19” from the model names of all of the various models that were in active production. So, prior to this date, the Model 94 would have been the Model 1894. Somewhere around 1946, Winchester, at the other gunmakers persistence, bowed to them and renamed the cartridge to .30-30, rather than the .30 WCF (Winchester Center Fire), obviously because the other makers didn’t like the Winchester name in the cartridge their rifles were firing, along with Winchester worrying they would miss out due to everyone else calling it a .30-30.

The overall condition is good. This example is refinished. The stock and forend remain solid with minimal handling evidence. Legible markings. Strong, crisp action. Bright bore with strong rifling and a lighly frosted appearance.
