Winchester Model 1894 rifle, .32-40 caliber, S/N 58973 showing early markings and variations and made about 1895. This Winchester remains in very good plus original condition showing 80%-90% original blue onthe octagon barrel and tube. Sharp markings with good edges. 50%-70% original blue on the frame drifting at the edges and tangs. Hints of case colors on the hammer, lever and butt plate but mainly patina. The stocks are ingood to very good condition with a major chip above the marking at the tang and other smaller imperfections. Good action and good bore. This is the era where Winchester advertised the 1894 as “The Klondike Rifle”and many went north to the Alaskan frontier. Large blade added during the period of use to original front base. Glen Hockett’s award winning collection of 94’s had few early specimens this nice as they are very,veryhard to find with some condition. (Antique) Est.: $2,000-$4,000
