Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds WTS: Winchester 32 WS Flat Band

Up for sale is a Winchester 94 Carbine in 32 Winchester Special. It is in excellent shape and is one of the very few Flat Band models that were made between 1943 and 1948. This one was made in 1947. Although the records for all Flat Band Models are non-existent, Winchester would stamp the year on the underside of the barrel, just in front of the receiver, and it is stamped 47. It has great original bluing and wood for a rifle that is 70 years old. The front sight insert was replaced with a Sourdough insert and has the hood. The rear sight has a decorative dovetail plug and the tang peep sight looks like a Marbles sight, but is unmarked. The tang sight comes with two screw in inserts, so you have three possible sight pictures. The original barrel band is the sling swivel style and the buttstock has the same type swivel mounted on it. I also have 260 once fired Remington brass, 40 once fired Federal brass and 300 of the old Speer (#2259) .321” diameter 170 grain flat nose bullets in their original boxes. The brass are in bags. There is a leather sling with the rifle.

Price is $1100 and I pay the shipping. Your FFL must be willing to accept from a private person. No trades and price is firm. Email with any questions. Thanks for looking.

Do you know if this was factory drilled for a tang sight or was a second hole added? Do you have any more pictures?

Thanks,

Matt,

I bought the rifle several years ago from the son of the original owner. He said his dad owned it the entire time and added the sourdough sight, removed the rear sight and put the tang sight on. His dad bought it after coming home from WWII and he got it after his dad passed away. So, unfortunately, I cannot tell you if the factory did the work or it was done later and no records exist for that time period to determine that. I can send you more pics by email or you can click on the current photo to take you to my photobucket site for more photos. Thanks.

Jerry

Thanks Jerry, I'll check them out.
