Dad’s Model 94

[DrHenley]

Thanks for sharing that, I hope it get's some good action!

I have my dad's 94 too, only it didn't get quite as much abuse. He left it in a closet in the guest room that had some humidity problems from a leaking roof. Inside appears to be fine, outside had to have some surface rust removed and a few places are lightly pitted. I haven't tried to take it apart since it's seems to be in good working order. I bought some dies and developed a load for it.

It shoots good enough to use as a 100 yard deer rifle, and I have just the stand to use it on where no shots are over 100 yards. I keep meaning to take it deer hunting but...

It would be accompanying his Auto-5 too, but my nephew begged me to let him inherit it since he borrowed it a lot and got attached to it.

Great rescue Rick, the sentimental value of your Dad's Winchester 30-30 and your first deer taken with it is just awesome !!

Good job Rick. I have my great uncles 94 in .32 win spl, made in 1960. He used it to hunt mule deer in Montana

Thanks, Y’all!

I’m glad you liked the story, though I’m not surprised. The membership here seems to be comprised of folks who can personally relate to such things.

I have quite a few, so I’ll try to put one down for posterity here from time to time.
