Yes sir there are us traditionalists...
also those in the die-hard tactical crowd...
And those who experience a lever action epiphany.

1. A brand new Winchester 1894AE in .30-30 for $295
2. A 1912 manufacture Winchester 1894 in .30 WCF for $350
I’ll give you one guess which one is still in my safe after 33 years!

If one is a collector or connoisseur of firearms, I would say the 1912. Since I am neither, I just like to shoot. I would say the new one. I see, I would be wrong though.Redthies wrote:I experienced my lever action epiphany when I was 17.

I’m neither one as well, but since mine is really similar to the one below, I’d say I made the correct choice. Mine is not, and will not be for sale, so the value is moot.
