I’m hopeful that someone can help me date and estimate value for two firearms. A neighbor has decided to sell two if his collection and I’m hoping someone can help me figure the age and a reasonable offer to extend to him.
The first, a Browning A-5 12 gauge light is in good condition. It bears serial #4G38426 which I believe indicates a 1964 year model per the Browning web site. Is this correct? The wood is in good condition and some blue has been worn off the receiver area where his cheek rested during firing I am guessing? The choke is “modified”. What would a reasonable offer be for this gun?
The second, a Winchester model 94 is in similar condition. It has a plain stock and bears serial #2939202. It is a 30-30 caliber with 20” barrel. I can't find date info on the Winchester site or anywhere else for that matter.
Can anyone shed any light for me? I’d like to buy them since they are available. Grandpa had the same model Winchester when I was a kid, and I’d love to have one of my own. I’ve attached a couple of pictures hoping they will help.
