What is the value of Winchester 1894 30 WCF Serial 811xx manufactured in 1897?

Answer 1

There are several variations of the Winchester 1894. Rifle, carbine, trapper carbine, an extra light-weight rifle, and a takedown model. There were also several special features that could be ordered and these would add to the value. Some unusual calibers will bring a premium, particularly those that are still available, and others, usually those that can no longer be purchased, will deduct from the price. Once you have decided exactly what you have, you need to determine the condition, either as a percent of the original finish remaining or by the NRA Standards. My price guide is a few years old, so they are probably going for 8-10% more now, but it suggests a Standard rifle in NRA Good condition should bring $800 while one in Excellent condition would be worth $1500. Other configurations are all higher.
