Pre 64 Winchester custom factory order 1894 mfg 1897 32-40 half octagon deluxe rifle model 94 1894

Winchester 1894 made in 1897, custom order from the factory in 32-40. 32-40 was John Wayne's favorite calibre. Deluxe pistol grip stock with crescent butt plate. Perfect bore, crisp rifling, bright and shiny. Lifter still has majority of bluing. This rifle was barely used and was cleaned properly to remove the corrosive powder residue from the powder and primers. Action is crisp and tight. Forend has beautiful grain and looks amazing. Stock has a couple of beaver teeth sized chunks removed on one side... Barrel was cut down to 24 5/8 from receiver. Has a good amount of bluing and patina. Overall 7/10, collector value damaged by cut barrel and damaged stock. Will consider reasonable offers on the rifle. Would make an excellent trapper resto-mod.

Pickup in Airdrie or I will ship for free-buyer must cover cost of insurance.

Selling due to being off work due to an accident.
