Gun appraisal

[dangerranger]

I have recently bought a lot of guns from a widow, a few are older and I am not sure the values. Does anyone know somewhere in salem that appraises guns or someone that could tell me more about a couple of them? The Main one I am curious about is a 1894 winchester .32 WS. Octagon barrel. I'm finding lots of mixed information online. Thanks.

This site will help you date it, if you haven't already that is. http://oldguns.net/sn_php/windateslookup.php?file=win1894.dat

Here's another one.

Pre 1964 is the higher value. Winchester started making them with cheaper parts to keep up with other rifle makers.

I've recently been researching an M 94 in .30-30 myself dated to 1959.

WOW according to those sites it's a 1904... alot older then I thought.

What is the over all condition? Rust on the barrel/receiver. Wood missing from the stock?

Picture?

As I said in another thread on NWFA. There is an Oregon Arms collector show in PDX this weekend. Google it for exacts. There will be guys there that can give info. They are better than going to a gun shop that sells consignment if you're looking for top dollar. That .32 WS is a spendy little round! Better than a $1.00/round.

It's in decent shape, I'll post pictures tonight. No wood missing woods in good shape. Minor rust

I have a Model 94 Winchester 30-30 lever action holds 6 rounds. Was manufactured in 1928. If anyone interested text me 5039336338. I'm not sure what these are worth. You can cycle all 6 rounds through quickly and hit what your aiming at.
