Holy grail 94 or barrel swap?
Posted: Fri Mar 09, 2018 8:52 pm
My daughter’s fiance inherited a 1894 serial #137xxx it has a full octogon 24 inch barrel. The serial number indicates a 1897 manufacture date. The barrel is marked 32 WS (Winchester Special). Searches on the interwebs state that 32 WS was not avaiable until 1899. So is this a super-rare gun or could this be a barrel swap or something else??? Not selling the rifle just trying to get it properly identified.
Thank you
