Winchester 1894 30 wcf

[pc9]

Ok found lots of different info on the Winchester 1894 but it’s all over the map when trying to figure out a value.
It’s in not bad condition and strong rifling.
Looks to b 1904 manufacturing date
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks

From the pictures, it looks to have been refinished at some point(I could be wrong, without seeing in person)
Blueing is not in great shape,
But Cresent butt plate and 16icnh octagon barrel adds to the value.
If those pictures are all I got, and without the serial number it is hard to put a year on it.
I would value at around $800.00
Well thats all I would pay, but some would pay more.
I have bought and sold a number of these, the last one I bought was in original very good condition, set up just like yours and I paid $900.00 Blueing was almost perfect.
Take my thoughts as you wish as I am not as schooled as some on here about old Winchesters.

if that sin is 806413 then the year of build is 1915-1916

Then built in 1904.
Are you looking to sell it?
Or did you just pick it up and seeing if you over or underpaid?

THis is my favourite version of the 1894, full length octagon barrel, and crescent buttplate. For its year it appears to be in good shape.

I’m looking for a value as yes I will put it up in the EE
I got it from a old feller for a good price and told him if I get more for it I would give him more coin.

Cool old iron, thanks for posting pics. I'm a bit surprised at the estimated value, but it is an oldy with an octagon barrel.
