Winchester Model 1894 Saddle Ring Carbine – .32-40 Winchester – Manufactured 1907 – Beautifully Refinished

Offered here is a beautifully refinished Winchester Model 1894 Saddle Ring Carbine chambered in .32-40 Winchester, manufactured in 1907. This classic Winchester lever-action rifle represents one of the most iconic American sporting firearm designs of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Designed by legendary firearms designer John Moses Browning, the Winchester Model 1894 became one of the most successful lever-action rifles ever produced. While the .30-30 Winchester became the cartridge most closely associated with the Model 1894, the .32-40 Winchester was one of the original chamberings offered when the model debuted in 1894.

This particular example features the desirable Saddle Ring Carbine configuration, complete with its original-style side-mounted saddle ring, carbine-length barrel, full-length tubular magazine, traditional walnut furniture, and classic Winchester lever-action design.

The rifle has undergone an attractive restoration, including rebluing of the metal surfaces. The refinished metal presents exceptionally well, with a rich, dark blue appearance that highlights the rifle’s classic lines.

The walnut stock and forearm display an attractive reddish-brown finish with visible grain and minor handling marks.

The barrel retains traditional carbine sights, including a blade-style front sight and adjustable rear sight. The saddle ring remains installed on the left side of the receiver.
