Classic REPEATER Made in New Haven, Connecticut
Here we present a C&R Winchester Model 94 Lever Action Saddle Ring Carbine, made in 1920 in New Haven, Connecticut. The credit for the design of such a prolific firearm again lies with John Moses Browning, who lent his extensive design talents to a large number of weapon types throughout his career. The Model 1894 was the first Winchester rifle made for use with the new technology of smokeless powder and was developed as a hunting rifle. Over 7.5 million were produced from 1894 until 2006. While various cartridges were supported throughout the run of the gun, the .30-30 Winchester became its staple. In practical use, the Model 1894 became a favorite for general shooters and hunters alike. To this day, it remains a deer hunting favorite, and, in all likelihood, more deer have been taken with the 1894 than any other. This Model 94 features a 20-inch round barrel chambered in .38-55 WCF. Many gun owners favored Winchester rifles for their ability to fire the same ammunition as their pistols, meaning that a cowboy, trapper or stagecoach defender could take along his trusty rifle and pistol sidearm with only one supply of ammo!
In April 1919, Winchester eliminated the “18” and “19” from the model names of all of the various models that were in active production. So, prior to this date, the Model 94 would have been the Model 1894.
The overall condition is good. Nice blue refinish. The stock is good with minimal wear. Legible markings. The buttplate is slightly oversized. The lever retention is weak causing the lever to fall out of position when the hammer drops. The action is strong. The bore is bright and shiny with sharp rifling. This example is refurbished.
