Featured in this lot we have a Winchester Model 1894 lever action carbine chambered in .30 WCF caliber (also known as the .30-30 Winchester Center Fire), made 1903. It is important to note that the revolutionary .30WCF round, introduced for the Model 1894 Winchester in the year 1895, was the first sporting cartridge made expressly for smokeless powder and became instantly popular. This early production 1894 shows fine deep blue on the 19 1/2" long round barrel along with nice aged blue on the magazine. The 1894 was one of the most popular of Winchester’s models and thousands are still used regularly today! The 1894 was also known as the “Klondike Model” as many found their way to the Yukon Gold Rush of the last years of the 1890s and into the 20th century. It was equally popular east and west of the Mississippi and big game hunter/conservationist Theodore Roosevelt was known to have used a Winchester 1894 in .30 WCF caliber very similar to this 1903 manufactured rifle. This rifle shows sharp and clear correct Winchester markings on the barrel and upper tang. This rifle shows good action and the loop for a saddle ring. The rifle shows good condition with some wear and patina due to age and use. The rifle weighs 6lbs 2oz. Serial Number: 174014. This firearm qualifies as a Curio & Relic firearm, and requires FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.
