Hello all,
I have a Winchester 1895 that I'm trying to find some value and information on age and if anyone thinks from the photos that it's been re-blued.
The serial number is 714xx. I looked at a few sites and they list that as being manufactured in 1914. I believe it's calibered in .30-06 as those rounds feed through the action, though I haven't had a chance to fire it. On the barrel it reads: .30 u.s. mod. 1903. All the metal is in excellent condition and the wood only has very minor scratches and one ding.
Thanks
