Please consider registering
guest

As of September 2014, the value of a new Winchester Model 94 varies from $1,199.99 to $1,459.99. The cheapest variation is the stock Model 94 carbine, while the most expensive is the Model 94 Trails End Takedown. The Winchester Repeating Arms Company is an American manufacturer of firearms. Winchester Model 1894/94. Our database contains values of serial numbers through 5103248 which ended the year 1982. Our sources disagree a bit, but this seems to be the best set of data. Enter the serial number of your Winchester Model 1894/94 in the box below. Sep 07, 2011  Winchester did not manufacture and stamp serial numbers on Model 1894 receivers every single day, and there are instances were none were made for an entire month. The PR records were a necessary tool to keep track of serial number sequence and the inventory.

Hi,

Does anyone know the highest 1894 rifle serial number known? BOBR states in his book production ended around 1080000. I have 1022187 in 32 SPL for any survey.

Walter,

Bob R is nearing completion of a new addendum to his last book, and it will update many items including your question. Because I have provided Bob with my Model 94 surveys for a number of years now, I can tell you the last Model 94 'Rifle' was much later than serial number 1080000.

More specifically, Winchester did not stop production of the Model 94 Sporting Rifle until December 1937. Winchester announced in the January 1938 Salesman catalog that it had been discontinued as of that time. The last serial number in 1937 was 1158835.

In my ongoing research survey, I have recorded (17) rifles with serial numbers greater than 1080000. The highest number is 1663507, a 32 WIN SPL, 26' round barrel (dated '52'). I have surveyed (140) Rifles with serial numbers later than 1022187. That stated, I would like to add your rifle to the list. If you would, please provide the details (e.g. barrel length, barrel shape, mag length, butt plate type, upper tang marking type, etc).

Bert,

Thanks for the interesting info. That era is a study in itself with the Depression and Winchester being sold to the Western Cartridge Co.

1894 1022187 is a standard round barrel rifle with no special order options.

Perhaps we should refer to my book, page 66. This is likely the last 'pre-64' RIFLE built at Winchester AND the last pre-64 in 38-55. It also has the earliest of the Proof Steel markings which we know are unusual in a pre-64, 38-55. Of course this is despite its dubious assembly but it was none-the-less factory built. I suspect that many of the very late rifles that were built, 38-55 or not, were likely of a 'special' assembly - a lack of proper inspection marks would be telling as well.

My 1080000 number was gleaned from known records at the time of original publication. Bert's great research has allowed me to 'fine tune' many of my pre- 90's figures and is greatly appreciated. My final addendum will uncover mistakes and correct a great many earlier assumptions and is available in PDF format. It includes much of Bert's research material in the form of 'fun facts.'

Let the fun begin again on this subject!!!!

Regards to all,

Michael,

I suspect that you have a standard Sporting Carbine with a serrated steel butt plate. Can you please confirm.

Bert

Thanks for your reply Bert. Yes standard Sporting Carbine (no saddle ring) with steel serrated butt plate.

Has the four position rear sight, hooded front sight.

I think is was made in 1936. Maybe you could confirm that for me.

Thanks

Hi my name Matthew and I just recently got handed my grandpa's old rifle and it is a Winchester 25-35 wcf model 1894 . there's a ring holder but no ring I guess it broke off or something . for the looks of the pics I have looked at it looks like a carbine .

Is there anyone that can tell me more about it ?

Matthew,

Yes, but we first need the Serial Number. Additionally, post a link to clear pictures of it.

Matthew,

The serial number identifies it as a 1912 production Model 1894. From your description, it is SRC (Saddle Ring Carbine), albeit missing the ring.

To post pictures as a Guest on the WACA forums, you need to upload them to a 3rd party hosting service, then insert the URL to them in the message you post here.

Bert, you have # 1050232 listed as a oct. bbl. rifle. It has in fact, a round bbl. Does not appear to have been messed with. Big Larry

Guests

Thank you Burt H.

And yes its just missing the ring .

Ok well I'm not that good for doing at that third party stuff . but I know the at the gun shop here in Lufkin Texas as I walked in with it and set it on the counter to find some shells the guy looked at me and looked at the gun and went to his gun book and then walked up to the counter offered me like 1,300 for it before I can ask him if he had the shells lol

Winchester 1894 Blue Book Value

I told him no since there's a lot of history behind the gun within my family and how my grandpa got the gun . well thank you for your help again.

What year was my Winchester manufactured? (Serial Number Reference)

Winchester Firearms Manufacturing Dates by Serial Number and Year 1866 through the early 1990s

Below is the download link for a special resource for dating Winchester firearms. These pages were scanned from documents compiled over the years by the customer service department of Winchester Repeating Arms. None of the page scans are of original documents but are simply transcribed information typed into a word processing program. In general, this information is the same that you would get if you called our customer service department and asked them for the information. They use these documents as a reference and the documents should be limited to that use.

Click the image below to download the PDF document containing the serial number date-range information on many Winchester firearms. You will need the Adobe Reader program to open this file. Adobe Reader is available free from Adobe.

Winchester 94 Serial Number Lookup

THE HISTORY OF WINCHESTER HISTORIC SERIAL NUMBER RECORDS.
There are many “legends” about why the historic serial number records for Winchester rifles and shotguns are not complete or why they are not always verifiable. A few reasons cited are:

  1. A fire at the factory
  2. Inadvertent destruction (during office cleaning)
  3. Records simply lost in filing
  4. Records misplaced between ownership transitions
  5. Documents borrowed but not returned

There is probably some kernel of truth to all of them. But the fact remains; there is no original, single, totally accurate database of serial numbers from 1866 forward that we are aware of. But perhaps these pages can help you somewhat in your research.

Please keep the following points in mind as you explore these pages:

  • Many of the Winchester brand firearms produced over the years are included, but not all. If your firearm is not listed, we probably do not have any additional information.
  • Before the 1990s the Winchester Repeating Arms firearms brand transferred ownership several times. Any information before the 1990s is always difficult to verify.
  • In general, only serial number ranges with an approximate year are provided in this document. There is no other detail beyond this that we can provide.
  • Since this information was provided through old documents (both official and otherwise), no representation is made that all serial number and year combinations are totally accurate.
  • In some exceptional cases, a more detailed, accurate determination can be made by calling the Winchester Repeating Arms Historian at the Morgan, Utah office. 800-333-3288. Ask for the Winchester Repeating Arms Historian.
  • For any other questions: 800.333.3288 or 801.876.2711. For Parts and Service call: 800.322.4626
  • For questions related to Ammunition don’t call us. Contact Winchester Ammunition directly.
  • No attempt has been made to determine the value of any guns listed.
  • The Cody Firearms Museum has more information on Winchesters produced before 1900.
  • This late historian George Madis compiled extensive histories on Winchester firearms. www.georgemadis.com

There are other outside resources – including the Cody Firearm Museum -- which can be excellent for determining date of manufacture and value: Click here to go to our gun values resource links.
