I have handled 2 rifles that were sworn to have been used in The Battle of Little Big Horn, and two that were believed to have been used in the Battle of White Bird Plains. I am Native American and have been interested in such history all of my life. The rifles I saw were lever action Winchesters, I think all in 38-55 ans ALL were similarly adorned with the tacks and some other art. This Crazy Horse seems exceptionally accurate. Quite careful illustrations were made after these battles of the repeating rifles and they serve to further prove the authenticity. I believe these are some of the most collectable guns ever produced. The originals I can only assume are priceless. My THANKS for sharing these valuable photos. I myself am not a collector. Owning one of these immediately makes one who owns one a Bonafide Collector I feel.

One element of the collector's rifles, the originals sure as heck had no engraving. I remember them looking and feeling very old and worn.

Well, here is my original... tacks and all lol.
It's my very first rifle, my baby. I took it on it's first walk into the woods, fired it's first bullet, and took care of it when it was sick, ha.
The first time I broke it was doing John Wayne tricks alone in the folks basement. I almost passed out. But I fixed it up, neatly mind you, matching checkering and all. 2nd time slipped on an icy rock. Third time I think a family member was messing with it, found it in the case in two pieces. After that time I was tempted to replace the stock, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it... so many years and too many memories.
After everything so far it still shoots straight as ever, surprisingly. I'd say close to 1000 rounds by now.
It's a '76 200th year US birthday carbine, with character

OKAY Swamper257 that just is NOT gonna cut it! Teasing us, especially me since the 50's is my era, and my favorite caliber the 32 WS to boot, and that it is a Model 94! That just is NOT right by any measure. I own a 51 Model 94 32WS myself. You are gonna have to figure out or get someone to take some photos and size them and post them. That's like dangling candy in front of a kid and not giving them a piece of it! So get snappin

JCByers i ran into the same issue. you have to use a third party host. I tried photobucket but they charge now, so i ended up using imgur it was free and not too difficult to figure out.

A Win Model 94 Classic manufactured about 1970. Has a few blems on the metal but semi-professionally restored. I refinished the wood with Tung oil.
