Product Description
WORLD WAR I Era 1915 WINCHESTER M1894 .25-35 WCF SADDLE RING CARBINE C&R
Repeating SMALL/MEDIUM GAME GETTER Made in 1915
Here we present a C&R Winchester Model 1894 Lever Action Saddle Ring Carbine, made in 1915 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 .25-35 was, and still is, a fairly short-range, medium game cartridge. This Model 1894 Saddle Ring Carbine features a 20-inch round barrel chambered in scarce .25-35 Winchester Center Fire.
The overall condition is good. Original finish. The action is excellent. The bore is in very good condition with sharp rifling. The stock shows much use and has been repaired with a splice on the right side of the wrist by the lower tang.
