According to your Winchester 1894 thread http://forums.GunBroker.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=245213, the last Model 1894 made in that year was serial #1674.

Ironically, it's for sale on the auction side: http://www.GunBroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=338175100

    I stupidly rebarreled a possible 1890 Winchester pump many years ago
    instead of relining it. Machined down a Marlin barrel, dovetailed it,
    etc. It has a serial # 190997. Believe it had a oct. barrel before.
    A fairly beat gun but useable. Was it a 1890? Also have a '06 Winc.
    # 726201 in good shooting condition which I use continually. Are any
    barrels (original) left for the older one, even in poor condition?
    Would like to restore the old one back near original even with relining.

    Bert, got the Wollensak 4x mounted on the .32-40 (went on like it was made for it [^] ), 165grn FN mold in hand, dies and brass in route.
    Two questions:
    I've never owned or used a external adjustment scope like this, anything I need to know about adjustments, maintenance, etc?

    What is the working chamber pressure for this rifle?
    ( Still waiting on those pet loads [:)] )

    I was told that you can appraise and verify old trapdoor rifles.
    What is involved with that.[?] I am asking because i have one that i think could be 7th calvary.

    Whats does a Pre 64 model 94 Winchester go for these days.

    Local dealer has one that i would say is in 60%+ condition. No rust or pitting, But a lot of blue wear around the reciever. Serial dates it 1955.

    He wants around 500 for it. Is this a good deal.

    Was nice to meet you at the gunshow---did you get a chance to go look at the Winchester pump .22 display in the back--there was also a gentleman back there who had a few Ballards & Winchester 1885's. Thought it was a great show-loved all the WW2 guns.

    It was my extreme pleasure to meet Bert at the Puyallup WA Gun Show this past week end.

    He is like talking to a live Winchester encyclopedia. I learned more in the brief time we had together about 1885's than I have in my entire life. What a fine gentleman, and so willing to share his hard earned knowledge with others.

    My hat is off to him and the other experts who contribute to this terrific site. I learn something every time I log on to it.

    Keep up the great work!!!

    Do you know where I can get some nice photo's of the winchester double set triggers as found on the early model 94's. I have a 1894 rifle in 32-40, full octagon barrel with a broken set trigger. The serial number on the gun is 287X. I have all the set trigger minus the broken arch. I think I can make the needed part but need a photo to compare against. I think this rifle will be a hoot to shoot. Thank you for any help you may be able to provide. My email is, barthels2@msn.com

    At what point in your life did you decide to collect and research Winchesters. Also, what factor influenced you to do it?

    Bert,

    Sorry I couldn't get over to your table at the Gun Show due to a last hour flurry of business.

    Looking forward to getting a copy of your Winchester book with great anticipation.

    Hi Bert. I posted some pictures of Henry Rifles awhile ago, and I just wanted to let you know that I sold one of them. I haven't pursued anything on the Navy Colts with consecutive serial numbers yet. Get too busy and time just slips by. I think I'm interested in starting to part with some of my collection. I have quite a few Winchesters and many Army and Navy Colts. Any info you could give me would be very much appreciated.

    It is not bother at all... it is just best if you post your own question(s) in a new topic verus adding them to an unrelated topic string.

    As a general practice, we lock all topics after (10) replies, so if you add a new (unrelated) question to a topic, it limits the number of responses that can be given to the original poster's questions.

    We (I) welcome all firearms related questions here on the Experts forum, but ask that you post a "New" topic with the appropriate topic title.
