Should Winchester Drop the Mod 94 from the line up, and move on to something newer?

I'll go you one better IMO it shoulda never been introduced. When John M submitted the 86 dual pillar action,it shoulda ended there. Perhaps with some minor mods.Maybe something as smooth as a 71. If that gun were around today,with minor mods and caliber assortment,you'd be paying more for it,but you'd have a real gun..Even a hundred year old 94 that was built when they cared aint as smooth as the 86's, 92's, 71's, IMO :D
 
All center fire rifles with lever actions and tube magazines are just can-openers to me... should they stop making them... NO :!:
Cowboys need guns too :idea:

if winchester was to quit making the 94, how long do you think it would be before we saw knock-offs, esp chinese - and they'd pull like tractors too, not like your 94 or 92 for that matter- remember. we're talking about one of the all-time classics here, savage did something similar a while back with the 99, but that didn't have near the reputation or distribution the 94 has-
 
Going strong on over 100 years and something like 7,000,000 manufactured yet still somewhat of a demand for them, I say carry on! :p

Hey maybe they'll come out with a CGN Commemorative! :wink:

Actually there is an idea, leave the pumps and levers to Norinco, and then USRAC could focus on designs and quality :idea:

Awesome idea,just think.My very own model '94 with CGN and my username etched in the reciever: "Canadian Gunnutz Commemorative Model 1894 Huntsman"

That sure looks & sounds sweet,

Huntsman :lol:

Um? Hasn't that already been done? I believe its called a 336.... Ok, Ok, that's a Marlin, if you want to pick nits. :D

But seriously, in terms of functions and features, what else does a 94/336 need?

Lighter materials?
Better sites (definitely)
Bent loop lever?
Frame mounted de-####? (for the pistol caliber crowd)
 
OH Yes the modern 94. 2" of trigger creep. An action thats as smooth as a pig on stilts. Sight,every bit as good as what I wittled out for my rubber band gun when I was 8..And oh the accuracy(minute of bulls ass)..The 94 has often been spoken of as the gun thats taken the most deer. What kind of a brag is that when for 70+ years its virtually the only gun out there...I can make a pretty safe bet from what I've seen that its wounded more than its retrieved in that devine thuddy thuddy caliber

Not a problem, H-Man!

Send me your rifle, and I will happily engrave your receiver for you.

I can't guarantee spelling though.....
