What's Included
- Winchester Model 94AE Traditional .30-30 lever-action rifle
The Traditional-series 94AE pairs classic lines with practical updates, including a tang-mounted sliding safety and Angle-Eject receiver. The receiver top is factory drilled and tapped, with plug screws installed, and retains the clean profile expected on this late New Haven production variant.
The 24 in round blued steel barrel is matched to iron sights: a ramped front sight and a semi-buckhorn adjustable rear sight. Two barrel bands secure the barrel and forearm, and a full-length tubular magazine provides a 7+1 capacity in .30-30.
Furniture consists of a straight-grip American walnut stock and forearm with cut checkering. A black composition buttplate with a molded Winchester logo completes the setup, and the length of pull measures 13.5 in.
Made in the United States during the 2005–2006 period at New Haven by USRAC, this example reflects the final pre-2006 production era. It has no saddle ring and no cross-bolt safety hole, aligning with the Traditional configuration details.
