Winchester 94 Question

[ghentry]

Sorry for the slow reply. I've been trying to find a job since getting laid off last week, so I haven't been stopping by as often as I used to. Below is a link.

As was said previously, its true. It looks like the model 94 is history. The following is a quote from their press release:

Effective March 31, 2006 the New Haven manufacturing facility will stop manufacturing the Winchester Model 70, Model 94 and Model 1300.
Winchester Firearms will continue to see and grow its current line of Select over & under shotguns, the new Super X3 autoloading shotgun, the new Super X autoloading rifle and Limited Edition rifles. The company also plans to introduce new models in the future. There will be no change in Customer Service.

That's a shame. I've really enjoyed the 94 I was given.

Thanks ghentry for the link to the thread. I think you did a great job on the 94, even with the troubles with blueing. Besides, I bet it holds more sentimental value now that you've poured some of your own sweat and toil into it than before!

I'm sorry to hear about your layoff, too. Best of luck and well-wishes on finding a new, and BETTER, one!!

i want a trapper in 30-30 so bad. i was going to get one late last year, but got a bolt gun instead and put the trapper off. now everyone wants twice what they're worth.

i've still got a 9422 though.
