Help Identifying Winchester 94

Canardman · June 14, 2014, 07:43 AM

I picked up a Winchester 94ae a while back chambered in .44mag. with a 16" barrel. I'm not sure what model it is though. I think it is a trapper, but not sure. Is there markings or serial number range to know for sure?
Thanks, C-Man

This is the Trapper. If it has the large loop on the lever it's the Wrangler. I don't know for sure but I don't think the various models used separate serial ranges. They are not difficult to differentiate. Any other questions?
