Winchester Model 94 manufacture date?

Cliff · September 14, 2002, 10:54 PM

My neighbor was showing me his Winchester model 94 that was handed down to him by his grandfather. The rifle is chambered for the 25-35 cartridge.

The serial # is 598XXX.

Can anyone give me the approximate manufacture date?

TIA.

Cliff, your neighbor's Winchester Model 1894 was made in 1911. Hope this helps!

Steve - That was FAST!

Thank you kindly.

1911... my favorite pistola is the 1911 design.

1911 was such a good year.
