Hi Everyone,
I'm looking at a .30WCF (a.k.a. 30-30) Winchester '94 that was made ~1915 (serial is 8066XX). The wood and finish appears to be original and I'd estimate it to be 60%-70%. It has a ding in the left side of magazine tube about halfway up that is noticeable but it doesn't affect the tube's function. They're asking $300.
I hadn't planned on bringing home another long gun but I'm really liking it. The money would be a stretch but I think I can do it without eating to much Ramen . The kicker is that the counter guy had just agreed to hold it for one day for me before one of the other guys at the counter said "If he doesn't take it I will." So I need to make up my mind by the end of business tomorrow.
So, is it a reasonable deal? I'd appreciate any comments or advise for or against buying it. Let me know what you think.
Thank you for your time,
Robert
