Title: old winchester 94 value??
Post by: jackelope on June 25, 2010, 09:27:49 PM: Does anyone have a good resource to check the value of a Model 94 Winchester built in 1954? I searched the serial number and got the age of it...it's in great condition, it's a straight stocked .32WS and I got a smokin deal on it. It's my 3rd mod 94 but the only 1 I have that has any age to it really. I have one that is from 1975 too but I know that one is nothing too special other than a neat gun.

Have you ever noticed in that cartridge that the Remington ammo has a smaller base than the Winchester? My friends jambs with Rem feeds Win fine. He has an 86 also.

Post by: carpsniperg2 on June 26, 2010, 06:14:24 PM: yeah i thought the 32 would be more money but it depends on the model ran a quick search on a few sites safe guess would be around 600-800 but some of the rare models are around 1000-1200 in the 32ws

If I paid $150 for it I probably did ok? :P
I'd say it's in 75% condition.

I can't get it here at work but there's a few sites. I think this is a good one but it's blocked by the firewall here so I can't make sure...try it and see if it works.

If not then google something like "winchester serial numbers" or something along those lines. You'll need the serial number.
