A few notes:
* Your Win 1894 looks like a saddle ring carbine, so a 1/2 magazine would be something someone did to repair a damaged magazine tube.
* The rear sight is a relatively uncommon sight found on 1894s.
* The stock carving was meant as a decoration. I see a lot of rifles from the 1940s and 1950s decorated in this manner. It definitelt detracts from collector's value, but adds personal value.
* Overall condition of your rifle is pretty rough.
