Winchester Center Fire.
No way to tell from the serial number. BTW, it was made in 1985. Caliber should be marked on the barrel. The 1892 was made in in .218 Bee, .25-20 WCF, .32-20 WCF, .38-40 WCF, and .44-40 WCF. (WCF stand for Winchester Center Fire).
Actually written as 30-30, it indicated a .30 caliber bullet, driven by a charge of smokeless powder that was a weight of 30 grains. First called the .30 Winchester Center Fire (or .30 WCF) the name 30-30 was adopted by Marlin.
The gun is chambered for the 32 caliber Winchester center fire cartridge. Also known as the 32-20.
WCF stands for Winchester Center Fire
WCF stands for Winchester Center Fire.
We need make, model AND seral number. 30 WCF is the caliber. Several companies made rifles in that caliber.
The 30 Winchester Center Fire (WCF) is the same as the 30-30 cartridge
1899
None. Same cartridge, different name.
We need to know the model, possibly the serial number, and definitely the CONDITION to estimate a value. 30 WCF just tells us what ammunition to buy for it.
I believe that those letters stand for someones initials.
The model 1892 Winchester lever action rifle was chambered in 32 WCF.(32-20win.)caliber.Most Winchester model 1894 lever action rifles were also chambered in 32WCF,but this usually meant the 32 Winchester Special caliber.If in doubt I would have the chamber cast to determine the correct caliber of your rifle.This can be done by a competent gunsmith.
