new owner of a model 94

[gladi8tr]

Picked up a winchester model 94 30 30 today i traded one of my shotguns for it. I think it is a sweet deal its a great rifle the only thing wrong is the butt stock was cut to add a soft butt pad to it. according to the serial #215xxxx she was built in 1956 and she still shoots sweet. Now that is America at its finest.... It has a bit of rust on the reciever anyone have any good tips on how to get that off without scratchin her up thanks.

100% copper scrub pad and some break free does the trick usually.

I would find some replacement furniture for the old gal and make sure she is dressed the way she was when first born.


You can still find factory stocks and forends as well as aftermarket...but go with a factory.

Another hearty "Welcome to the club". I have an NRA 100 year commemorative M94 that is one of my favorite guns to just go out and do some plinking with.

You got a good gun. I have one in 32 Win. Spl, made a few years before yours and its a great gun. The action is smooth, its reliable and pretty accurate. If only .32 Win ammo wasn't so damn expensive, but I think I'm getting a set of .32 dies for Christmas.

Sucks about the stock being cut. Keep your eyes open for an authentic replacement. I don't know if a post-64 stock will fit it.
