Stevens Springfield Model 94B 16 Gauge Single-Shot Shotgun, 28 in Barrel
This Stevens Springfield Model 94B is a classic American single-shot shotgun built between 1937 and 1968. Chambered in 16 gauge with a forward-thinking 2 ¾ inch chamber, it blends a blued forged-steel barrel with a color case-hardened receiver. A walnut stock fitted with an aftermarket ventilated rubber recoil pad gives it a solid, field-ready feel while preserving the straightforward mechanics that made the Model 94B a reliable farm and training gun for decades.

What’s Included
- Stevens Springfield Model 94B 16 Gauge single-shot shotgun
The 28 inch “Selected Forged Steel” barrel carries both the “PROOF TESTED 16 GAUGE — 2 ¾ INCH CHAMBER —” marking and a simple brass bead front sight, giving the shooter a clear, traditional sight picture.
An exposed hammer and break-action layout keep operation intuitive and uncomplicated. The shotgun employs an extractor rather than an ejector, a reliable setup for single-round loading while reducing parts complexity.
The color case-hardened steel receiver not only adds visual character but also reflects the durable finish common to Stevens shotguns of the era. The absence of a serial number places production before the 1968 Gun Control Act requirements, underscoring its historical timeframe.
The walnut stock features a pistol-grip wrist and plain fore-end, both check-free and practical. The aftermarket ventilated rubber recoil pad extends length of pull to 14 inches, softening felt recoil and making the gun comfortable for extended shooting sessions.
