Our Assessment: The Winchester Model 94 XTR Big Bore in .375 Winchester is a robust lever-action rifle designed to offer increased power and versatility over the traditional .30-30 chambering. Introduced in the late 1970s and popular through the 1980s, the Big Bore variant addressed demands from hunters seeking greater stopping power in lever-action rifles. With its 20-inch barrel and compact handling, this rifle is well-suited for hunting in dense brush or wooded terrain, where quick shots and manageable recoil are critical. The .375 Winchester cartridge itself provides excellent performance on medium and large game at moderate ranges, making it highly favored by hunters pursuing whitetail deer, black bear, and wild hogs.

Beyond its performance capabilities, the Winchester Model 94 XTR Big Bore stands out for its classic aesthetics and durability. The rifle typically features a richly blued finish paired with checkered walnut stocks, exemplifying Winchester's commitment to craftsmanship and quality during this period. Its solid top receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounts, providing hunters with increased accuracy options while maintaining the classic appeal of iron sights. Today, the Winchester 94 XTR Big Bore in .375 Win has become a sought-after collectible due to its unique chambering, discontinued production status, and enduring reputation as an effective hunting rifle.

Our Assessment: The Model 1894 was another Winchester lever action rifle designed by gunmaking genius John Moses Browning, and it became one of the most famous and popular hunting rifles of all time. It was the first commercial sporting rifle to sell over 7 million units, and was also the first commercial American repeating rifle built to be used with smokeless powder. It was introduced in 1894 in two black powder cartridges, the .32-40 and .38-55 Winchester Center Fire rounds, but by August 1895 Winchester had developed a different steel composition that could handle higher pressures, and the .25-35 and .30-30 WCF chamberings were introduced. As R.L. Wilson relates in his reference book ""Winchester An American Legend"", Winchester’s announcement of the Model 1894 in their November 1894 catalog certainly proved prophetic: ""We believe that no repeating rifle system ever made will appeal to the eye and understanding of the riflemen as this will and that use will continue to warrant first impressions.""

This Winchester Model 1894 Lever Action Rifle in .30 WCF was made in 1920 and is in Very Good condition. It features a 26"" octagonal barrel, 92% of its original blued finish, two-piece smooth walnut stocks, a mostly bright bore with sharp rifling, and is a scarce takedown model. The .30-30 WCF is one of, if not the most popular deer hunting cartridges in America and the 1894 is the classic rifle for this round. This is a wonderful old Model 1894 Rifle, and would be a fine addition to any Winchester collection.

Serial Number: 827177

Year of Manufacture: 1918

Caliber: .30-30 Winchester (WCF)

Sights / Optics: The front sight is a blade dovetailed and screw-set to the front of the barrel. The rear sight is a flat-top "U"-notch elevator sight dovetailed to the rear of the barrel. The top tang is drilled, tapped and filled for a tang sight (none present).

Stock Configuration & Condition: The stocks are two-piece smooth walnut with capped forend, straight grip, straight comb, and smooth steel shotgun-style buttplate. The forend has a custom diamond-pattern hand-carved on each side. The stocks have some scattered nicks, dings, scuffs and scratches. There is a short, thin crack at the left-front edge of the forend. The LOP measures 13 1/8" from the front of the trigger to the back of the buttplate. The plate has worn to white with some scattered minor oxidation, nicks and small scratches. Overall, the stocks are in about Very Good condition.

Type of Finish: Blued

Finish Originality: Original

Bore Condition: The bore is semi-bright with sharp rifling. There is minor erosion scattered through the bore. In this writer's opinion, the bore rates 7+ out of 10.

Overall Condition: This rifle retains about 65% of its metal finish. The finish is thinning at all edges. Most of the balance is in the receiver and nosecap which have mostly worn to white or gone to a light patina. The receiver has some scattered light nicks and scratches. The barrel and magazine tube have generally strong finish with some light nicks and small scratches, mostly in the magazine. The action shows operational wear. The screw heads range from sharp to tool marked with strong slots. The markings are clear. Overall, this rifle is in about Very Good condition.

Mechanics: The action functions correctly. We have not fired this rifle. As with all previously owned firearms, a thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance standards.

Box, Paperwork & Accessories: None.

Our Assessment: The Winchester Model 1894 rifle followed the other John Browning designed lever action rifles to become one of the most famous and popular hunting rifles of all time. It was the first commercial sporting rifle to sell over 7,000,000 units, making the name “Winchester” synonymous with all lever action rifles. It was also the first commercial American repeating rifle built to be used with smokeless powder. It was introduced in 1894 in two black powder cartridges, the .32-40 and .38-55 Win. rounds, but by the next year Winchester had developed a different steel composition that could handle higher pressures, and the .30-30 Win. family of cartridges was born.

This is a Winchester Model 1894 made in 1918, chambered in .30-30 Winchester. The .30-30 Winchester paired with the Model 1894 is nearly synonymous with "deer rifle" in America and a classic rifle to add to any collection. This example is in a less common configuration with a 20" octagonal barrel and a shotgun-style buttplate. Records for this serial range are not available, so we cannot be sure this is the factory configuration, but it makes for a handsome "short-rifle" that will display well in a Winchester collection. With its good bore and strong mechanics, it should also still make for a good shooter. Please see our photos and good luck!

This is a Winchester Model 1894 carbine made in 1912 with a 20" round barrel and chambered in .32-40. As a pre-1932 Carbine without a saddle ring, collectors would call it an "Eastern" carbine, suggesting that in the early 1900s Eastern customers would transport their rifles in carts or new-fangled automobiles while Western customers would transport them on horses. The rifle has been refinished, so it looks great for its age, epecially with its checkered deluxe walnut stocks. It has a half-length magazine, giving it nice balance, and it has been equipped with a vintage Lyman receiver sight. The result is an attractive rifle that will display well in a collect

Please see our photos and good luck!

Our Assessment: This is a Winchester Model 1894 Saddle Ring Carbine in .25-35 WCF that was made in 1909. The cartridge is based on the .30-30, perhaps the most popular deer cartridge in America, but necked-down to .25 caliber, giving it a little more velocity with lighter projectiles. This rifle is in Good condition with 60% of its metal finish remaining, a fair bore and strong mechanics. The stocks have scattered wear and have been refinished. As a pre-64 example of the 1894 Saddle Ring Carbine, it would be a neat addition to a Winchester collection. It would also be well worth restoring to take back out in the field. Please see our photos and good luck!

The rear sight is a Marble's "U"-notch elevator sight with white diamond aiming reference dovetailed to the rear of the barrel; the notch is fine-adjustable for elevation and can be reversed to present a "V"-notch. The top tang is drilled, tapped and filled for a tang sight (none present). The barrel has a pair of drilled and tapped holes just in front of the forend.

Stock Configuration & Condition: The stocks are two-piece smooth walnut with capped forend, straight grip, straight comb, and steel crescent buttplate. The stocks have scattered nicks, dings, scuffs and scratches. There are five notches in the bottom-front of the forend that appear intentionally applied. There is a tiny loss at the top-front corner of the wrist on the right. There is some discoloration around the wrist including a bruise on the left. There are no cracks. The LOP measures 13" from the front of the trigger to the back of the buttplate. The plate has worn to white with scattered oxidation and erosion. Overall, the stocks are in Good-plus condition.

Type of Finish: Blued

Finish Originality: Original to the parts. The ovalled "P" marking on the barrel indicates that it was replaced outside the factory. The magazine is also likely a replacement.

Bore Condition: The bore is mostly bright with sharp rifling. There is no erosion in the bore, but there is a little stubborn copper fouling. In this writer's opinion, the bore rates 9 out of 10.

Overall Condition: This rifle retains about 75% of its metal finish. The balance is mostly in the receiver which has gone to a patina mottled with areas worn to white. The magazine and barrel have generally strong finish with a few light marks. There is light wear and minor oxidation around the mounting holes on the barrel from a previously installed sight/optic mount. There are some spots of oxidation on the magazine. There are some nicks and scratches, mostly on the receiver. The action shows operational wear. The screw heads range from sharp to disfigured with usable slots. The markings are clear. Overall, this rifle is in Very Good condition as not parts-original.

Mechanics: The action functions correctly. We have not fired this rifle. As with all previously owned firearms, a thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance standards.

Box, Paperwork & Accessories: None.

Our Assessment: This is a Winchester Model 94 Rifle in .30-30 WCF that was made in 1910. The .30-30 is synonymous with "deer rifle" in the United States and the 1894 is perhaps the most common platform for the cartridge. The rifle is in Very Good condition with 75% of its metal finish remaining, a good bore in its replacement barrel, and strong mechanics. The rifle has likely seen its share of use and, with its new barrel, it should still prove to be a good hunting rifle. It will also add nicely to a Winchester collection missing the 1894. Please see our photos and good luck!

Type of Finish: Blue

Finish Originality: Original

Bore Condition: The bore is gray. The rifling shows wear, but is generally well defined. There is erosion and pitting scattered through the bore. In this writer's opinion, the bore rates about 5 out of 10.

Box, Paperwork & Accessories: None.

Our Assessment: This is a Winchester Model 94 Takedown Rifle in .32 Winchester Special made in 1908. The cartridge is based on the .30-30, perhaps the most popular deer cartridge in America, but necked-up to .32 caliber, giving it a little more power. This rifle is in Good condition with 50% of its metal finish remaining, a fair bore and strong mechanics. There is some residue built up in the seam between the receiver and barrel that appears to be preventing removal of the barrel assembly. This pre-1964 vintage rifle should be of interest to collectors, especially in the Takedown configuration and with its Special Smokeless rear sight. Please see our photos and good luck!

Our Assessment: The Model 1894 was another Winchester lever action rifle designed by John Moses Browning. It became one of the most famous and popular hunting rifles of all time, the first commercial sporting rifle to sell over 7 million units. As R.L. Wilson relates in his reference book “Winchester An American Legend”, Winchester’s announcement of the Model 1894 in their November 1894 catalog certainly proved prophetic: “We believe that no repeating rifle system ever made will appeal to the eye and understanding of the riflemen as this will and that use will continue to warrant first impressions.”

This Winchester Model 1894 Lever Action Rifle in .30 WCF was made in 1908 and is in Very Good condition. It features a 26” octagonal barrel, 85% of its original blued finish, and elegant two-piece checkered and carved deluxe walnut stocks with a capped pistol grip. While factory records are not available for this serial range, there is nothing overt to indicate that the rifle is not factory original with matching assembly number ""7150"" on the lower tang and stock inlet. In addition to being a takedown with deluxe checkered stocks, it is engraved in the A. pattern with attractive scroll and border surrounding a Ram panel scene on the left receiver flat and a Buck panel on the right. This rifle checks a lot of boxes for the collector, a beautiful example of an early 20th Century 1894, and will be a wonderful addition to any collection.

The rifle has seen honest use, but it looks better than any of us will when we're coming up on 120 years old! Please see our photos and good luck!

Our Assessment: The Winchester Model 1894 rifle followed the other John Browning designed lever action rifles to become one of the most famous and popular hunting rifles of all time. It was the first commercial sporting rifle to sell over 7,000,000 units, making the name “Winchester” synonymous with all lever action rifles. It was also the first commercial American repeating rifle built to be used with smokeless powder. It was introduced in 1894 in two black powder cartridges, the .32-40 and .38-55 Win. rounds, but by the next year Winchester had developed a different steel composition that could handle higher pressures, and the .30-30 Win. family of cartridges was born.

This is a Winchester Model 1894 rifle made in 1907 with a 26” octagonal barrel chambered in .30-30 Winchester. The .30-30 Winchester paired with the Model 1894 is nearly synonymous with "deer rifle" in America and a classic rifle to add to any collection. This example is in Good condition, retaining the majority of its original metal finish, a fair bore, and strong mechanics. The rifle has been equipped with a nice variety of vintage Marble's and Lyman sights. It would make a neat addition to a Winchester collection and may still prove to be a fun shooter. Please see our photos and good luck!

Our Assessment: The Winchester Model 94 is one of the most celebrated American sporting rifles ever made. From its introduction in 1894 to the end of U.S. production, it was a favorite of ranchers, hunters, and collectors. The Angle Eject (AE) variant modernized the platform by allowing over-the-receiver scope mounting, a key feature for those wanting to pair this classic design with optics.

This particular example was manufactured in the late 1990s and features the proven .30-30 Winchester chambering, ideal for brush hunting and medium game. The 20” barrel makes it fast-handling, while the high condition level ensures it will be equally at home in a collection or the field.

With 98% original finish, excellent walnut stocks, and a mirror-bright bore, this rifle is a testament to the enduring quality of Winchester craftsmanship. Whether you’re a collector looking for a clean AE-era 94 or a shooter who appreciates classic lever-action performance, this one won’t disappoint.

Our Assessment: This is a Winchester Model 1894 Rifle in .32-40 WCF that was made in 1902. The .32-40 is one of the original chamberings for this model. It still has a fairly devoted following among black powder cartridge shooters, but was quickly surpassed by new smokeless chamberings. The rifle is in Good condition with 75% of its metal finish remaining, a decent bore apart from a bulge 3" from the muzzle, and generally strong mechanics, though the hammer will fall from half-cock. The rifle has seen honest use, but it looks better than any of us will when we're more than 120 years old! Please see our photos and good luck!

Our Assessment: The Winchester Model 1894 rifle followed the other John Browning designed lever action rifles to become one of the most famous and popular hunting rifles of all time. It was the first commercial sporting rifle to sell over 7,000,000 units, making the name “Winchester” synonymous with all lever action rifles. It was also the first commercial American repeating rifle built to be used with smokeless powder. It was introduced in 1894 in two black powder cartridges, the .32-40 and .38-55 Win. rounds, but by the next year Winchester had developed a different steel composition that could handle higher pressures, and the .30-30 Win. family of cartridges was born.

Not only was it a success, but as of 1983 it held the record for the best-selling center-fire rifle in U.S. history. 5,103,249 Winchester 1894’s and 94’s were produced from 1894 to 1983 alone and it didn’t stop there. From 1984 to 1997, the Model 94 angle eject was introduced and in 2003 the iconic rifle was offered as a .410 shotgun. U.S. production ceased in 2006. At the time there were 14 versions of the Model 94 in the Winchester catalog. In 2010 Winchester Repeating Arms reintroduced the model 94 in two Limited Edition models to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Oliver F. Winchester's birth in New England in 1810.

This is a Model 1894 Takedown rifle made right at the turn of the century. It has a 26” octagonal barrel chambered in .30-30 WCF. It functions well and has an Old West appearance and will fit right in to a Winchester or lever action rifle collection. Please see our photos and good luck!

Our Assessment: The Winchester Model 1894 rifle followed the other John Browning designed lever action rifles to become one of the most famous and popular hunting rifles of all time. It was the first commercial sporting rifle to sell over 7,000,000 units, making the name “Winchester” synonymous with all lever action rifles.

This is a Winchester Model 1894 rifle made in 1902 with a 26” octagonal barrel chambered in .30-30 Winchester. The .30-30 Winchester paired with the Model 1894 is nearly synonymous with "deer rifle" in America and a classic rifle to add to any collection. This example was produced with some special order features including a half-octagon barrel, half-length "button" magazine, and a shotgun-style buttstock, though the buttstock has since been replaced. The rifle is in about Good condition, retaining little original metal finish, a fair bore, and strong mechanics. It would make a neat addition to a Winchester collection and would be a good candidate for restoration. Please see our photos and good luck!

The rear sight is a "U"-notch elevator sight dovetailed to the rear of the barrel; the notch is fine-adjustable for elevation.

Stock Configuration & Condition: The stocks are two-piece smooth walnut with banded forend, straight grip, straight comb, and checkered steel buttplate. There is a hole in the belly for a sling stud that is not present, there is no provision for a forward sling mount. The stocks have some light nicks, scuffs and scratches. There is a crack at the right-rear of the buttstock near the heel. The LOP measures 13" from the front of the trigger to the back of the buttplate. The plate has wear around the edges, some oxidation in the face, and well defined checkering. Overall, the stocks are in about Very Good condition as refinished.

Type of Finish: Blued

Our Assessment: This is a Winchester Model 1894 Carbine, made in 1949 with a 20” round barrel chambered in .30-30 Winchester. The 30-30 Win. has likely taken more deer in America than any other cartridge except maybe .30-06 and the model 1894, or simply 94 as it is now known, is one of the most popular rifles ever chambered for the round. This rifle was made in the period with what is known as the "flat-band", due to the profile of the forward barrel band. It is in Good condition retaining a strong bore and mechanics. It would be perfect for throwing in the back window of your pick-up truck for use on coyotes and other varmints and it would also be a great deer rifle today just as it was when it was made. Being both a "flat-band" and pre-1964 production, it may also interest the Winchester collectors. Please see our photos and good luck!

Our Assessment: This Winchester Model 1894, manufactured in 1916, is a classic example of America’s most iconic lever-action rifle. Introduced by John Browning and produced by Winchester, the 1894 became synonymous with the American frontier and remains one of the most beloved sporting rifles in history.

Chambered in .30 W.C.F. (.30-30 Winchester), this rifle was designed to be lightweight, durable, and effective for hunting medium game, especially deer. The 20” barrel and full-length magazine tube indicate this is a standard rifle configuration, making it both collectible and functional for range or field use.

With over a century behind it, this rifle still exhibits solid mechanics, a strong bore, and much of its original charm. For collectors of Winchester rifles, lever guns, or early 20th-century sporting arms, this is a desirable piece with historical value and aesthetic appeal.
