I just bought a clean 1894S .41Mag today at the local pawn shop. No rust. The blueing is good. A slight nick in the stock by the tang and a mirror bore!
I get to take it home in 10 days. For those of you that live in a state that doesn't have the retarded 10+ day waiting period to purchase a firearm consider yourself very fortunate. It is a pain in the ass X 10!
Anyways, I also ordered a set of Lee carbide dies, 300 rounds of Winchester
brass, and 300 assorted JHP bullets. Can't wait till everything gets here!
It is one sweet rifle!
