    Not here yet but I did bid and win a Winchester Model 1894 30 WCF made in 1896.
    Antique so no FFL from Arkansas. I'll likely sell my 1958 Win 94 30WCF if the antique is as functional.

    Love them lever guns.

    Yes it is.
    In very good condition, beautiful bore with some copper fouling.
    Shootable now, but needs some minor work. Just guessing that the carrier and trigger block springs need replacing. Since it came with the sling swivels, I'm going to be on the look-out for a vintage sling that will compliment the rifle.

    Back in the mid-seventies I had to walk away from a short, octagonal barreled 30 WCF saddle-ring carbine an old lady had for sale at a swap meet since I didn't have the $75 she wanted for it. It rates highly on my "missed chances & regrets" list. Now that I have the books on the Model 94, it's even worse. The only "consolation" is that I know that a some point or another I would have had to sell it so as to pay the bills...

    That's a great price for the C308. I've never seen one that cheap.

    I got it for $499 from Classic Firearms dot com and they were running a special--one five-round mag, and eight twenty-round mags. Six of them were CETME mags and two were HK aluminum mags. Part of the special was that there was a $50 rebate from Century Arms, bringing the cost down to what I stated. The rifle I bought is all FDE and it was mostly a lark* purchase, as I've got plenty of HKs and clones in all the calibers.

    *lark in that my Canik TP9SF is also all-FDE and I wanted a rifle/pistol field combo.

    Sometimes you just have to get your priorities in order. I know what you mean about regrets. I should have kept my 1966 Jaguar E-Type (and all my other old British Sports Cars) instead of getting married and paying bills.

    Well, I'm glad I sold my '60 MGA Roadster in 1967, and the '74 MGB in 2000.
    Regret very much trading my Colt Trooper Mark III (?) .22 for the Colt Government .380 in 1987.
