I have an old winchester model 94, Need help with make and year.

[crismon]

I just got 2 old winchester model 94 rifles from my grandfather who passed away. They are in mint condition. I know nothing about these guns. Can anyone please help identify the make and year from the serial number.
Gun 1 serial number: 2726836 Gun 2 serial number: 2384928 and what is the rough value of these two guns. Any help would be great.

Sincerely,
David.

The first was made in 1964 and the second was made in 1959. The pre-64 guns bring a premium as they changed the design and lowered the quality of finish in 1964. A truly mint 94 from 1959 would be of some interest with collectors. I would be guessing but maybe $600-$800. Perhaps $300-$400 on the other one?

i have a m94 serial no. 2819345.In my part of Tenn. the pre-64 ones in primo condition are going for about $550.00 to $700.00.It surprised me to see so many of the pre-64 ones in such good shape as most were bought for work horses and not safe queens.
