I thank you all who gave me answers on my first question. Sorry for not giving enough info but, it was my first time to try this and I didn't know exactly what to do. Now I know to give the most info right away. I am pretty familiar with guns, I have two rifles and one shotgun(not including the rifle in question), but this one does not seem to have the name ingraved anywhere. I only know that it is a .30/30 caliber with a nickle steel barrel & smokeless. It's a lever action and has a blind box for a magazine.

Are you sure it's a blind box magazine? Not detatchable?
Not tube fed? Not a bolt action?
Ok, the only thing I can think of off hand that sounds anywhere near that is a Savage 99 or a Browning BLR, but the Browning either has a detatchable mag or is tube fed, depending on the model, and I have never seen a Savage 99 in a nickle finish...

Nickle steel barrel? Smokeless powder? Is it a lever-action styled like the 1894 Winchester carbine? I remember seeing these in .30 Winchester. The owner told me that it was the forerunner of the newer .30-30 Winchester and would shoot .30-30 rounds (as the only difference was that the .30 Winchester shot a heavier bullet).
I'm not sure what you mean by 'blind box for magazine?' Do you feed the rounds into the side via a loading port or gate? Is it a lever action? If so it sounds like the .30 Winchester I described above. The make would be a Winchester like the ammo it is chambered for and it would be a Model 1894 .
Hope this helped.

With a "blind box magazine", it could be a Savage Model 99.
