Action Type: Tubular Magazine Fed Lever Action Rifle

Barrel Length: 24"

Sights / Optics: The front sight is a beaded blade dovetailed to a serrated, ramped base fixed to the front of the barrel. The base is grooved for a hood that is not present. The rear sight is a "U"-notch elevator sight dovetailed to the rear of the barrel; the notch is fine-adjustable for elevation. The left of the receiver is drilled, tapped and filled for a receiver sight (none present).

Stock Configuration & Condition: The stocks are two-piece smooth wood with beavertail forend, pistol grip, straight comb, and checkered black plastic shotgun-style Winchester buttplate. The stocks have some light nicks, scuffs and scratches. There is light handling wear in the grip areas. There are no chips or cracks. The LOP measures 13 1/2" from the front of the trigger to the back of the buttplate. The plate has light wear at the heel and around the edges with well defined checkering. Overall, the stocks are in Very Good condition.

Type of Finish: Blued

Bore Condition: The bore is mostly bright and the rifling is sharp. 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 96% of its metal finish. The receiver has some minor frosting. The action shows light operational wear. There are a few other minor marks. The screw heads range from sharp to tool marked with usable slots. The markings are clear. Overall, this rifle is in about Fine condition.

Mechanics: The action functions correctly. We did not fire this rifle. As with all used firearms, a thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance standards.

Box, Paperwork & Accessories: None.

Our Assessment: Winchester’s venerable Model 94 rifle, long a favorite of hunters and outdoorsmen, was beginning to lose sales in the early 1920’s, although the shorter barreled carbine was still popular. More people were traveling by motorcar and railroad, and Winchester thought a takedown rifle based on the Model 94 would sell well. The Model 55 was introduced in 1924, but never sold particularly well, and was discontinued in 1932 when it was superseded by the Model 64. The Model 64 was a redesign of the Model 55 with a longer magazine tube and made with a solid frame only. The Model 64 stayed in production until 1957, with a total of only 66,783 manufactured, making it one of the more scarce lever action models made by Winchester. A 2nd batch of 8,250 was produced in the early 1970s, designated the 64A.

This is a Winchester Model 64A Rifle in .30-30 with a 24” barrel and 3/4 length magazine tube. The .30-30 is perhaps the most popular cartridge for deer hunting in America and paired with the 94 action, is among the most common deer rifles in the country. This rifle is in about Fine overall condition, showing minor wear, a strong bore and good mechanics. If the collectors don’t take enough notice, this will make someone a very nice hunting rifle. Please see our photos and good luck!
