Winchester Model 94 Carbine .30-30 Lever-Action, Top-Eject, 20-Inch Barrel (1966) – Post-64, Blued, Walnut Stock
This 1966 Winchester Model 94 Carbine is a top-eject, post-64 example chambered in .30-30 with a 20-inch round barrel and full-length magazine tube. It features Winchester Proof Steel, classic iron sights with a hooded ramp front and adjustable semi-buckhorn rear, and a straight-grip walnut stock with a checkered metal shotgun-style buttplate. The receiver shows a darker, more matte finish that contrasts with the blued barrel and magazine tube.
Built in the United States, this carbine retains the open-top bolt configuration with no cross-bolt or tang safety, along with a right-side loading gate and nominal 7+1 capacity. Its 13.25-inch length of pull and two-barrel-band layout complete a handy, traditional field-ready profile.
