This is the place,
http://www.proofhouse.com/win/index.html http://www.proofhouse.com The home page for many others. I think it was Mr. Keenan, or Mr. Watson that posted this site a while back.

If I were to guess, I'd bet that Harley Nolden would be able to steer you in the right direction.

I have a Winchester model 94 serial # 2775xx3. The chart in this thread for serial # id show a lapse between 64 and 65 models. The 65 models all start with 279 and the 64 models were all below 2,700,000. Is there an explanation for that. I am a newbie to the forum so any help is wonderful. I am thinking of trading the rifle for a 270 or 308 but want to verify its value. Thanks

Winchester made a lot of changes in their guns in 1964, mostly to cut manufacturing costs. They put a big jump in their serial number sequence which shows the restart with what are really new models, even though under the same old names.
Yours is one of the redos and is therfore less valuable than a "pre '64." |

This is the easiest way to check if one's Winchester 94 is a pre-64 or a post-64:
The pre-64 will have a screw head visible in the bottom of the forward end of the lower lever link; the post-64 will not. . |

1922 - No gun can be evaluated w/o a full description of it's factory features and the remaining % of original factory finish on wood/metal, including any known defects like rust, cracks, dents, and it's mechanical operating condition.
It could be a rusted $50 tomato stake Standard Carbine, or a $10-20,000 Special Order Deluxe Rifle in pristine condition - you didn't say. . |

It's in very good condition and is very accurate when shot. The only thing I can see wrong with it is that the saddle ring is missing and I can't find one to replace it.

Without pictures we can tell you almost nothing.

"Very good condition" is too nebulous a term to assign a value to a firearm. Standard factors for accurately describing a firearm's condition can be found here: http://www.armchairgunshow.com/Condition-NRA-Guns.htm
Clear photos, both close-ups of details and overall views, would be of immense help to us for estimating value. |

There are no SN records for the Model 94AE, since the Winchester records were turned over to BATF with the closing of the Winchester plant in New Haven, CT in 2006, and they aren't talkin'.
The 16", .44 Mag (aka:Trapper) Model 94AE was introduced in 1986, well before your SN - so the best you could do would be to narrow down the period: 94AE- no safety (1983-92), 94AE-CBS(1992-2003), 94AE-tang safety(2003-06). . |

1894 AE Date of manufacture?
Hello all: I've followed the posts so I assume my 1894 AE serial #: 6514151 was one of the "lost" ones. Any guesses as to manufacture date?
Many thanks! |

1969 - $50, if it's a tomato stake, $350 if pristine (you didn't say).
