Ted Williams Model 100 30-30 Win Lever Action Rifle - This is a Ted Williams Model 100 Lever-Action Rifle, chambered in .30-30 Winchester, serial number V145194, featuring a 20-inch barrel with a blued metal finish on both the barrel and receiver. This classic rifle was manufactured in the USA for Sears & Roebuck, and is based on the Winchester 94 platform. It is equipped with factory rifle sights, a wooden stock and forend, and retains the original Sears-branded plastic butt plate. The bore is in fair condition, with prominent rifling, though it needs cleaning. Mechanically, the action cycles properly, and the firearm appears to be sound. Cosmetically, it is in poor overall condition. The receiver and lever show light pitting and surface rust, while the barrel is in fair condition with spotty pitting. The magazine tube shows typical finish wear with limited signs of corrosion. The wooden stock and forend are structurally solid, with scratches, dings, and worn finish throughout—most of the stock finish is gone, while the forend retains some finish. A vintage American-made lever gun with field wear, ideal for restoration or utilitarian use. FFL/4473 required for transfer.
