No, not a common defect. Couple of possibilities- first, there WERE Winchester 67s made as shotguns- to fire only .22 SHOT cartridges- so look closely at the barrel markings. Second possibility- these are older rifles. Wear, and buildup of deposits can make the shallow rifling disappear. Cure is THOROUGH cleaning, using a decent solvent such as Hoppes #9 and a bronze brush (clean from the rear, please).

In general, the barrels cannot be rifled "after the fact"- the bore diameter would be too large.

Gun barrel rifling?

RIFLED firearms are those that have a method of making the bullet spin when fired. This makes for a much more accurate projectile. The oldest and most common means of doing this is buty cutting spiral grooves on the inside of the barrel. These grooves grip the bullet, causing it to spin as it passes up the barrel. The grooves are known as rifling.

Why would the serial number on a model 94 be knurled out then stamped over with wraco?

If a Winchester was returned to the factory for repair which required replacement to the frame it was common to remove the ser.no. and replace it with the letters WRACO, Winchester Repeating Arms Co., Also, unauthorized parties re-sold guns not under contract with Winchester, when these guns showed up at the factory it was re stamped with WRACO. Starting about 1905 Winchester's leaving the factory would be stamped on the top of the frame and the top of the barrel at the juncture of the frame & barrel with the letters WP inside an oval. If your gun was manufactured BEFORE 1905 AND has the WRACO stamp over the s/n then in all probability it'll have the WP proof mark too. Regards, Marty
