What's Included
- Winchester Model 94 Carbine in .30-30 (1952) with 20-inch barrel
The carbine configuration features a 20-inch round barrel made of Winchester Proof Steel, two barrel bands, and an under-barrel tubular magazine for a 4+1 capacity. The receiver is a top-eject design with a right-side loading gate, preserving the classic handling characteristics of the Model 94.
Open sights include a ramped blade front and a semi-buckhorn rear with an elevator. The rear sight notch has a non-factory bright-colored highlight that aids visibility at the notch without changing the original sight layout.
The furniture is traditional walnut: a straight-grip buttstock and walnut carbine fore-end, paired with a steel checkered shotgun-style buttplate. The metal exhibits a blued finish throughout, including the steel receiver.
Factory Winchester "WP" proofs on both the barrel and receiver match, indicating the components were proved together at the factory. The left receiver wall is drilled and tapped for a receiver sight or side mount (no mount installed).
Chambered in .30-30, this pre-64 example was produced in 1952 in the United States and has a 13.0-inch length of pull.
