Model 1894 rifles produced after 2002

feature a top-tang mounted “safety.”

Model 1894s produced between 1992

and 2002 feature a crossbolt “safety.”

The rear sight is easily adjustable for

elevation and drift adjustable for windage.

The port on the right side of

the receiver makes loading the

tubular magazine fast and easy.

Born from the genius of legendary gun designer John M. Browning, the Model 1894 combined the compact,

handy size of the Model 1892 rifle with the ability to fire high-power cartridges like the 32-40 Winchester and

38-55 Winchester, and later the revolutionary smokeless 25-35 Winchester and popular 30-30 Winchester

cartridges. Firing these longer cartridges was made possible by the unique design of the Model 1894. When the

finger lever is cycled, the internals of the receiver drop down below the receiver and allow a longer action stroke

to accommodate the longer cartridges, while maintaining the compact size of the receiver.

The beautifully finished walnut stock is

accented with a metal or synthetic buttplate.

The design of the Model 1894 action is

simple, yet strong and fast to operate.

The trigger stop requires the

finger lever to be completely closed

before the rifle will fire.
