Model 94s' Price Increase??

[osgcvp]

The supply of these guns is drying up, we used to see 20 a month come in and out of that 6 were pre 64. Now you are lucky to see 5 a month and 1 pre 64 every other month.

 

[rocklobster]

Yeah but the majority of the pre 64 owners are in the aging population, what happens when the boomers move to retirement homes...

modern winchesters are winchesters... doesn't matter where they are made. jap guns are in almost everyday better then the originals. the japanese have some of the best cnc machines there is.

Out of curiosity, what would a 1940's-1950's Winchester '94 be worth in 38/55, good condition?

I ain't moving to no GD retirement home, and my '94 will be free of me when I see roots every morning.

Easy Bob, there's no rush to see roots.

My comments about 94s appreciating $50/year was for the 4 years I have been on this site. I didn't explain that very well. By the way, I never enjoyed hunting with 94s I'm a bolt kinda guy.

I'm goin fully loaded. I'm thinking of making an offer for the whole collection. But I don't know what to expect a resale value on an old 38-55 to be though.

.38/55's are in demand and usually sell quickly.

I'll admit to honest ignorance here... For what, $500? $700? $1000?

They aren't making it easy for you, are they? I have not seen one for sale either but I guess that $1000 would be for starters on a poor example?

I find it had to imagine that a rifle I paid $99 for in 1973 is worth $350 to $400 bucks today.

Yeah I know looky, I should edit my post to say ... pre 64 model 94's will still be in circulation because there are so many young guys buying and sellin em... And ahem... lets not get a thread started on pre million 99's rising in asking price...

 

[mikeystew]

I think I'll be starting my own thread in the antiques section on the 94 I found today lol... She's an oldie.
