What's Included
- Winchester Model 94 Carbine .30-30 lever-action rifle
This carbine retains the desirable top-eject receiver configuration with no AE marking, consistent with early 1980s production. The left receiver wall is factory drill-and-tapped and fitted with plug screws, accommodating a receiver sight or side mount per Winchester’s pattern for the era.
The 20 inch barrel is marked "WINCHESTER PROOF STEEL" and "Made in New Haven, Conn., U.S.A." and carries the Winchester oval WP proof. It is paired with a hooded ramp front sight and an elevator-adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight, giving the rifle a period-correct sighting setup.
True to the carbine layout, it uses a full-length tubular magazine that runs nearly to the muzzle and is secured by front and rear barrel bands. The straight-grip walnut stock and carbine-length forend are matched with a black checkered hard buttplate featuring the Winchester logo.
The rifle wears a blued finish on the receiver and barrel, with an exposed hammer and a half-cock hammer notch safety. Length of pull measures 13.5 inches, aligning with the traditional Model 94 carbine handling characteristics.
