Winchester 94

[RickG]

I am considering selling a Winchester 1894 30-30 built in 1969. The gun is in excellant shape with deep bluing and perfect wood. The first owner shot 10 rounds through it and gave me the rest of the box when I bought it. I shot those and one more box, so 40 rounds total.
I looked on Gunbroker to try and get an idea of what to ask for it but prices are all over the place $350 and up. I'm not looking to rip anyone off but I need some honest advice on what I could expect to get for it.

Mods, please move this over to the firearms forum.

If it is just a regular post-64 Winchester 94, not a commemorative, then $350 is probably right in the ballpark. Winchester cheapened their manufacturing process after 64 and the quality issues don't command high prices.

I personally would keep it just because it is one of the guns a person ought to have

If it is the most common model, with no special features, then I think $350-$450 is the range it will sell for. I recently bought and then sold a Winchester commemorative 1866-1966 model, and it sold for about $100 more than the regular 1894 model.

I bought one a few months ago from KTP for $350. It was a few years newer than yours (mfg. in 1976) and in very good condition, though perhaps not quite as good as you describe.

They're great guns, but there is just so many of them that they're not all that expensive. A pre-'64 will be in the five hundred dollar range. But I'd say $350.00 is pretty much what you're looking at for a decent price on a post '64.

Thanks guys, $350-400 is pretty much what I was thinking also.
