ANTIQUE c1897 WINCHESTER Model 1894 LEVER ACTION .38-55 RIFLE Early

Iconic Repeater Made in 1897 in New Haven, CT.

Here we present an antique Winchester Model 1894 Lever Action Rifle, made in 1897 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 very good. Refinished. Robust, crisp action. The bore is in good condition with nice rifling present. This example sports a solid stock in fine shape with less than average wear.
