Working 94s

Post by Hawkeye2 »

My neighbor just walked down my driveway carrying a 94 rifle, takedown, cresent buttplate, square post front sight. looked like it still had all the blue except the butt plate and reciever. Someone had added a reciever mounted peep. Its good to see one out there still earning it keep. My button mag SRC will be taking to the woods too. Shot my first deer with it 53 years ago.

This one was a ranch gun in Az. It looked like it had a very long hard life before I got it about 25 years ago, and looked like it hadn't been cleaned in 40 years as well. Still worked, but felt a little muddy inside. I use it for my rainy and snowy weather gun, and part time truck gun.

Love that photo Bill.

Mine was supposedly used on a ranch in Arizona before I traded a sofa for it in 1976. A flatband, it came to me wearing a 2x4 roughly carved into a stock. I put a new stock on it after returning home in 1981. Shoots very well and has taken a deer for me. It is the one between the Marlin 336T and the Browning 1876 SRC.

I bought this one, a 1961 version about ten years ago. So far it has three Whitetails to it's credit.
