If you’re looking for a "bare-bones" Winchester, this is it–literally. Even has a "rare" free-floating barrel…so sad. Cry

He says it is, "100% original except for the barrel band" … and then I looked at the photos. Words fail me. Some people’s concept of ‘100% original’ must mean that the original parts are there, even if they are massacred. That starting price got a smile out of me.

Jim

Appreciate the thought, but truthfully, I might offer the guy $100 for the few remaining useable parts.

Auctions like that really jack the prices around; some unknowing guy with a 94 that’s fairly decent now thinks “hey, my 94 is 10x better than that one, it must be worth 10x the price”.
