I picked up a Winchester 1894 and did a quick restoration. You can read about it and see pictures on my web site
The front sight on it is a Marbles Improved front sight.

Thanks for that info Bert. The receiver looks like it has traces of case color, but it just might be age?Could this rifle have been special ordered with case color?
No, it could not have been special ordered with case color. Winchester discontinued the case color option in August of 1901.
