Winchester 1894(?)|Winchester Rifles|Forum|Winchester Collector

The best method to verify the authenticity of your Model 1894 is to contact the Cody Firearms Museum records office and obtain a factory letter.  

Based on the serial number, it was manufactured in December 1901.  The barrel is actually part octagon & part round.

It appears that what you have is a Model 1894 Extra Light Weight (ELW) Take Down rifle with a 1/2 octagon barrel, a 1/2 mag, and a shotgun butt.  Your first step is get the Factory letter for it from the CFM records office and confirm that the rifle matches the letter.
