Those natural light photos really made this rifle pop!  Fabulous wood and the metal looks great too.

Wow......wow............wow!!!!
 
Thanks for showing us.
 
BTW- Henry didn't take me up on those mouse crates, so if you'd like I can make you a real sweet deal on this one...
  

George,

It's nice you and the others appreciate the nice 94 from Henry, as sharing it with pictures is the easy part, in all honesty. He's a master at the Art of the Deal, and the mouse crates you offered just didn't do it for him, but as a fellow astute collector, I did notice that he would be interested in a crate, especially full of 1890's, or even an empty 1890 crate, so another hunt begins. He has more 1894's like the one I got from him. He's a very astute collector in his own rights, and can smell a mouse a mile away. LOL!

Kevin, and BRP, I'm glad that you guys can appreciate it for what it is, and not afraid to speak up. Sharing these with fellow, like minded collectors, have a lot to do with why we do this also. We enjoy this hobby and can learn from others just the same.

Like Henry and I talked about, this one isn't beat up from the T/D lever, where many get scratched up. The Deluxe gorgeous wood is easy on the eyes.

A few pics didn't come out, as couple pics. wouldn't download. Seems a couple from the right side, wouldn't download, after a few tries I moved on.  I did try to change some lighting on a few of them.

Enjoy!

Being in the T/D Configuration, and the 1/2 Oct. barrel, makes it just the right balance to my liking!

No wonder Al you have pursued these for a long time, as the two on you're table are every bit this quality and special, with detailed Letters that are hard to come by during these early years.

Beautiful rifle. Glad you and Henry made a great deal.

Al

From what I can see that thing is spectacular!

I would have liked to take a peek at that in Ohio too…

That's a beauty of a rifle!  And it sounds like a fun deal.  Always nice when deals are win-win.  
  

Amen Steve! It seems like a lot of the sellers out there want to make a mortgage payment off every sale! 

Congrats Anthony that one is a beauty and in my opinion looks way better than the one on GB! Plus, if Henry changed the stocks out he would tell you 😀

Winchester M-1894, #131488, mfg. 1901, .30 WCF. 26" 1/2 Oct. Barrel. Half Magazine, Take Down, "DELUXE", Pistol Grip Stock, W/Checkering, Cody Letter. 

Thanks Again, Hank!

Naturally the pictures don't do it any justice, with this time of years, sun glare and such, as the afternoon sun out on the patio would be better, but the schedule won't dictate that.The full Rifle pics had too many shadows.

So trust me when I tell you that Henry put this Rifle well over 90%, at a minimum, and he's absolutely correct. To say the least. With it's few honest handling marks, I feel it's a screamer! Al again I apologize for not carrying it into the OGCA/WACA Show, as I had a few things going on and will try to bring it, down the road, to let you give me you're thoughts on it!
