This is a rare and desirable Winchester Model 94 Eastern Carbine in .32 Winchester Special, manufactured by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company in New Haven, Connecticut. The serial number 944163 confirms production in 1922, as verified by Winchester’s serialization records for the Model 1894. Designed by John Browning and introduced in 1894, the Model 94 is one of the most iconic lever-action rifles, celebrated for its reliability and versatility. The Eastern Carbine configuration, with no saddle ring provision, was tailored for the U.S. commercial market, particularly east of the Mississippi, where such features were less necessary. The .32 Winchester Special, introduced in 1901, was designed for better performance in lever-action rifles, offering a balance of power for deer and medium game hunting. The special order 2/3 magazine tube, as noted in historical listings, adds to its uniqueness. This rifle’s historical significance lies in its role as a classic American hunting rifle, widely used in the early 20th century and featured in Western culture.
This example is in good condition, retaining traces of its original blue finish with scattered light spotting, typical of a century-old firearm. The 20" barrel, equipped with a Lyman front sight, Marble’s rear sight, and a tang-mounted peep sight, has a bright bore, indicating careful maintenance. The replacement walnut buttstock, fitted with a non-factory shotgun buttplate, and the original forearm show minor handling marks, adding character without compromising function. Mechanically excellent, the rifle operates smoothly with a crisp lever action. All markings, including the Winchester logo and caliber designation, are clear and legible.
