A family member has offered me an 1894 Winchester model 94 30-30 manufactured in 1905. He has asked me to make him an offer. How do I find out what the value of this rifle is? The wood is very nice, however, the bluing is light in places. No pits or rust. Where do I look to get more info?
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.

Look up the serial number. If its a proof steel base model 200-350$ depending on condition. But if its factory engraved or a broad hoop carbine or a number of other special models it could be worth $6-10000

Before yall ask I get my guess from 15years as a cowboy action shooter and seeing them bought and sold at those prices besides owning three pre 1910 94s myself

If it was made in 1905 it should have a saddle ring on it unless it is a rifle, long barrel,. A saddle ring carbine in good condition is worth between 700.00 and 1000.00. If it is a rifle it is worth a little more. If it is a carbine but no saddle ring it has either been modified or it was shipped as an "eastern carbine" which was a special order gun since all carbines before 1935 came with a saddle ring. If it is a real eastern carbine it is worth about 20% more than a saddle ring. This is if it is in as good of shape as you say.

If they are made before 1935 I'll give you 500.00 for them if original.

It's a round barrel "bone stock" no engraving rifle with the standard lever, no saddle ring.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.

Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Bad picture, but here it is. It's on it's way here from Colorado Springs.

So it is a 24" rifle? If so that's a cool gun and if you paid less than 750.00 for it you did good.

Depending on the condition of the wood and the rifling I would say $800-1100.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.
