Funny, but when the M94 was still in production, I never wanted one.
Now that they're no longer being made, I gotta have one!
When you’re wounded and left on Afghanistan’s plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Just roll to your rifle and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier.

I've got my Grandfather's '94. Made in 1953 and it shoots as good as the day he bought it. Love that gun. It still sees quite a bit of use during deer season for taking out hogs.

My 94's are pistol cal - 44 and 357 but have always wanted a good ol' ''thuddy-thuddy'' - and maybe will still find one.
Very fine aquisition - very much a ''pick up and go'' rifle that is!

I have a couple of 30-30 model 94s & I love them. One is my truck gun, the other is my constant companion around the farm & on the 4-wheeler.

Just holding a lever gun makes you feel all cowboy like doesn't it? Put on a couple of SAA revolvers and you feel like you should be sitting on a horse out under the stars.
I love lever guns.

I used to have a Lazy T on my back from a branding accident. I'm one of the few that don't have to act like a cowpoke, it was my first paying job.Originally Posted by PT-111

I prefer the Marlin 336, but congrats on the new gun.
Nice! Now you've done it - you've rekindled my interest in a lever gun.

I thought the lazy t was branded on the backs of cowpokes that didn't get up before dawn.
Lever guns were the only real Deer gun when I was growing up in the sticks. I have other types of rifles now, but my Leveraction 30-30's are the only ones that give me true comfort and confidence.
Dakotaranger,
Nice!
Do you know the year of manufacture?
