Product Description

1905 WINCHESTER Model 1894 .30-30 Lever Action RIFLE

Classic Repeater from the Early 1900s!

Here we present a C&R Winchester Model 1894 Lever Action Rifle, made in 1905 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.

This Model 1894 rifle features a 26-inch octagonal barrel chambered in .30-30 WCF. The top of the barrel is marked “MANUFACTURED BY THE WINCHESTER REPEATING ARMS CO. NEW HAVEN CONN. U.S.A. PATENTED AUG. 21 1894”. The tang is marked “MODEL 1894-WINCHESTER-TRADE MARK.”

The overall condition is near fine. Original blued finish. The markings are clear. The walnut stock remains smooth and solid. Great bore. The action is excellent. A very nice Winchester Model 1894 rifle with the octagonal barrel from 1905!
