@GigsGigs-x8z Verify that it has the manufacturer stamp, caliber marking and proof marks. Does that length and contour match was was reported by Winchester as being available during that year? Perhaps email them with what info you can and see if they can give you some way to confirm.
@@Sherpat2 Yes, and sarcasm is sarcasm, and humour is humour. You heard a sarcastic joke, but took it as a serious statement. While 99% of the commentors recognized it as a joke and smiled, you and one or two others thought he was serious and melted down. Sorry you missed the joke, it was dry but pretty good.
@@nathanadrian7797 The statement couldn't be further from the truth about one of the the most famous gun designers in our history a good joke as you say , for a dry laugh.

My 1894 was purchased by my Great Grandfather, the serial number is 61X. I also have a 94 that was made in 1954.
What caliber is the 61x?
Actually looked at my 1922 Winchester model 94 it's stamped 94. But damn it's my dream gun and cartridge.
My dad gave me a new one in 1974 for my 15th birthday & it still shoots like a new one! & it is a 30-30.
@@deanhoward4128 Excellent gift and wonderful memory I’m sure. I have one to pass down one day also.
In Terminator 2, he used a Winchester Model 1887 lever-action shotgun. Not even close to a Model 94.
FWIW, the gun in Terminator 2 is a Winchester 1887. It’s a John Moses Browning design as well, but it was ultimately eclipsed by the pump action 1897.
@furrowingowl5906 Thanks for sharing!
Good video. Mine is 1971 . Will go to my grandsons. Hope they don't fight over it ,and can share!
@@bartsimpson6767 Haha! Yes, I hope they can.
“…..John Moses Browning…. Probably never heard of him…. Kind of a one hit wonder.” I almost stopped listening right there.
@jcb2920 It’s called, “humor”. You should read about it and try it sometime. Really fun.
@@HuntShootLive Perhaps I’ll look into it. 🙂 I assumed y’all were joking.
Brownig held 128 patents on firearms.
@@bobsmoot2392 Yes. He is the man behind most of what we have today. Does sarcasm escape you?
Ive heard the pre 64 had head space stretching if shot a-lot .
How do you tell if a 1929 1894 barrel is original? The one I’m looking at is a 1929 with a 15 inch barrel. I want to be sure it’s not altered.

Referring to Browning as a "one hit wonder" is crazy.
@@alexbaker4672 The number of people who can’t detect sarcasm is mind blowing.
Which one of these lever action rifles was know as " That Damn Yankee Rifle that you loaded on Sunday and fired all week" ?
@user-yp6ev9oi2t That would be the 1860 Henry.
I own #999999...and it's stamped 94
WOW!!! where did you find it???
@@henerygreen578 I inherited it
1927, very nice.
I have number 23522
Not American but United States history
Wtf is a leeeeeever??? LEVER
@@fredruss8427 Haha! I’ve never had the English police on my channel before. I’ll say it how I want. Thanks for helping the algorithm!
Your welcome sir. Glad i could help. @@HuntShootLive
john browning is not a one hit wonder, he was one of the greatest and most famous gun designer of all time. he has dozens of patents.
@kencarlson1421 Most definitely. That was humor.
@@HuntShootLive humor i doubt it your ignorance is showing
@kencarlson1421 Sure man. Thanks for helping the algorithm.
Sarcasm and humour escape you!
Narn right.
One hit wonder? Sounds like you need to go back and research him more smh.😂😂😂
@@kevinsnow8300 sarcasm escapes you.
John Moses Browing was not a One Hit Wonder, stopped watching video at that point.
@Sherpat2 Humor is fun. You should try it.
Sarcasm escapes you.

Thanks for all the valueble talking!
I've just purchased a 94 from 1902 and this information was just what I was looking for

Mine is a 94 serial number 4344483. Can't find it anywhere online.
