1894s limited edition
« on: November 14, 2005, 11:53:11 AM »
I won an 1894s in 44mag/44spl.  Written on the right side of the bolt is-- NRA Limited edition  xxx/500.      The writing is in a gold laquer or something.  I have never shot the rifle.  Is there a special collectible value placed on this rifle and should it be preserved or should I have fun and shoot it.  What's its value?  Ballard rifling, hooded front sight, the tang is NOT drilled for a tang sight.  Thanks.
