Winchester Model 94 Theodore Roosevelt Commemorative Carbine .30-30, 20-inch Octagon Barrel, Coin/Nickel Receiver, 1969 Limited Edition
This Winchester Model 94 Theodore Roosevelt Commemorative Carbine is a 1969 limited-edition release honoring the 26th President. It features a coin/nickel-finished receiver engraved "26th President 1901–1909" with an eagle motif, a blued 20-inch octagon barrel, and a buttstock medallion with Roosevelt's bust. TR-prefix serial numbering identifies it as part of the dedicated commemorative series.
Built on the Model 94 carbine platform, this lever action features a 20-inch octagon barrel of Winchester Proof Steel paired with a full-length tubular magazine for a 7+1 capacity. Top ejection and an exposed hammer maintain the classic Model 94 handling profile, and overall length is approximately 38 3/8 inches.
The commemorative treatment includes a coin/nickel-finished receiver and forend cap, factory engraving with "26th President 1901–1909" and eagle on the receiver, and scrollwork along the left receiver border. A buttstock medallion bearing Theodore Roosevelt's likeness ties the theme together, and the TR-prefix serial numbering aligns with the series.
Sighting is traditional with a dovetailed front blade and an adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight with elevator, supported by a smooth, straight-grip wood stock. A saddle ring on the right side of the receiver adds period-correct utility and visual appeal.
Manufactured in the USA and configured as a full-size carbine, this factory-engraved Winchester 94 combines the recognizable handling of the platform with distinctive commemorative details specific to the 1969 Theodore Roosevelt edition.
