So I've been looking around lately and run across a couple old Winchester '94s (1900 & 1903) for around a grand each. I know next to nothing about Winchesters, but these struck me as beautiful old guns and I think I might like to own a collectible Winchester.
My questions are as follows: What are the pit-falls of collecting old winchesters? Are there any years or calibers that are considered lemons? Is $1000 reasonable for a turn of the century gun is functional condition? Are there any specific things that I should look for on Winchesters beyond function and condition?
Thanks for your help.
