My newest purchase.  Found it on a local fishing forum. Guy was selling it to buy a kayak.   It's a Winchester 94ae 30.30.  I've been looking at lever actions for sometime, but don't much about them.  Was looking at .357/.38's, but saw this and it seemed like a good deal.  Paid $275.  Guy bought it in 2005, put less than 20 rounds thorugh it and hung it on his wall, been there ever since.  Had dust all over it and smelled a little of cigarette smoke.  Nothing wrong with I can tell other than he tried to mount a sling mount on it and screwed up the rear mount, so I may take that off and fill the hole or cover it with a elastic shell holder.  Not sure yet, or hell may just leave it like it is.  Cleaned it up and got a box of ammo for it, I'll shoot it this week.
