Winchester model 94 pricing.

[gimpy51]

Years ago, I bought a 1965 '94 for $100. One of the ways you can tell the difference between the 64 & 65 is with a magnet. Mine was built with both 64 & 65 parts during the changeover. A magnet would confuse most. All "stock" parts. Serial number is low 1965. It usually sits behind the rear seat in a leather saddle scabbard. Scabbard wear marks and a lot of blue rubbed thin. Was thinking of selling it also. But then I found the value just didn't offer a better replacement. It's just an ideal ranch gun for my needs. No local zombies but will easily handle anything I'd be facing.

I get where you're coming from with the brush gun, it's just the bluing is so nice on it. If I could find an original stock for a good price it would be a pretty damn nice gun

The staining difference between the right and left side make me remember the similar staining on a Garand stock after one of my kid's cats peed on it. Did the previous owner ever own any cats? You did a good job on the wood from the pics.

OK, I have to ask. How in the world did your Garand come to be in a position for a cat to pee on it?

That reminds me Andy.
It's about time for another episode of ''Gun Nerds'.

This time. It's your turn!

"Gun Nerds"
That would be a fun thread.
I think I'll start one.
Maybe a detailed report on a gun or a nit pick of the gun mistakes in a movie or book...

I'd taken it down and given it a thorough cleaning, but set it standing up against my reloading table for the night intending to put it up in the morning. The kid's big Maine Coon decided it was intruding on his terrirtory and solved his issue. My bad, i confess. Lesson learned,

This guy has carved 95% stocks for just about any gun you want to restore, especially lever guns and old single shots, like rolling blocks. He has lots of different styles and wood. I could have gotten my stocks for my rolling block in mesquite, for instance, which looked really cool, but would not be appropriate for a restoration. Mesquite stocks for a Win 94 would be awesome.

My ex-wife's Main Coon male did the same on top of a newly installed Corvette engine that didn't have the intake manifold on it yet. He mysteriously disappeared shortly thereafter.

I have a Winchester Model 55 30-30 Takedown.
Someday, I will consider selling it.
It was my stepdads hunting rifle. He died in '68.
It has not been fired since around '66, or '67.

I'm not sure how I noticed this. [OK I had an offer]

But your in box is full Ligito. So I cant send you a PM.

I'm guessing the MC was then cannon fodder?
I know a cat would piss once in my house and it would want to have wings. Once on a gun anywhere and that would be its last pee
