The "Antique" Carbine variant pairs a color case-hardened-style receiver finish with a gold/brass-tone loading gate and a saddle ring, giving this Model 94 a distinctive factory presentation. Light scroll engraving on both sides of the receiver is factory-applied, adding a tasteful decorative touch.
Manufactured in 1966 per serial-range reference, this is a top-eject, pre-safety configuration with no cross-bolt or tang safety. Barrel markings include "WINCHESTER—MODEL 94—30-30 WIN.—" and "MADE IN U.S.A.—WINCHESTER PROOF STEEL."
The 20" round steel barrel feeds from a tubular magazine with a stated 7+1 capacity. Sighting is traditional, with a hooded ramp bead front and a semi-buckhorn rear sight with elevator for quick adjustments.
The hardwood stock has a straight grip and an uncheckered, carbine-style forearm, delivering the classic Model 94 handling profile. Length of pull measures 13.5", offering a familiar carbine fit.
Made in the United States during the 1960s era, this Model 94 captures the features many enthusiasts seek: top-eject lever action, proof-steel barrel, and period-correct styling combined with the distinctive "Antique" receiver treatment.
