winchester 1894 30-30
My friend has aquired an winchester 1894 lever action 30-30. We have researched it and found it was made in 1907 and has an octogon barrel. However, the original sights were removed and replaced by lyman ghost ring or peep sight. It is in very good condition.
My question is does any have an idea on what the value of a rifle like this is?

I have a winchester mdl 94 30-30 it has what I would guess to be brass plating on the receiver and barrel bands . The barrel has "antlered game" stamped in it with gold letters. There is also a medallion in the stock that has an elk, caribou, moose and deer on it. My question is what is the value in good condition is is no ag08288 . There is some severe rust on the receiver back by the tang that goes to the stock so bad the plating is gone and metal is severly pitted. Is there any way to repair this damage the gun is unfired and otherwise in new condition. 0 -
Well, you certainly can have it repaired, but it won't be cheap.
And, it will NEVER be worth more than a standard Model 94 that has been abused in the same way.
I'd use it as a shooter, or sell it to someone who will.

Thats what I bought it for I am not a collector. Do you have any idea what it will take to repair it. Would a gunsmith be able to perform this repair? Thanks for any info. 0 -
THE ONLY WAY TO REPLACE MISSING METAL (PITTING) IS TO WELD IT BACK IN, UNFORUNETLY THE M-94 YOU HAVE IS A CAST STEEL RECIEVER AND CANN'T BE WELDED.AS THE ABOVE POST SUGGESTED USE IT AS IS. 0 -
BRASS does'nt Plate...Its a composite of different Metals...To Bad about the Rust....But the previous responses are Correct...Take it and shoot it...
