I found it in a local shop, a gunshop I still frequent, and scraped together nickles and dimes out of my pay at the lumberyard to buy it. It cost $190.00. It was used but in perfect condition, but for a scratch on the left side of the buttstock. A little furniture wax and steel wool fixed that fine, and I was in business.<\/p>\n<p>I discovered that even then, the buckhorn rear sight was not to my liking, so I purchased a Williams Peep sight- I like the williams particularly, because they&#8217;re bloody hard to knock out of alignment and give a good sight radius with a good sight picture. <\/p>\n<p>With the Williams sight and the hooded front, I&#8217;ve done some impressive shooting. Not quite up to the par of Jimmy Stewart in Winchester 93, but some good shooting.  <\/p>\n<p>Loaned it to my brotherinlaw, who dry fired it, and shattered the firing pin.<\/p>\n<p>Replaced the firing pin from Numrich, and just sat the rifle in the closet. And just came out a couple years back, after reading some of Kim&#8217;s stuff. <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s in my lap now. I&#8217;m happy to have it here. I like it a lot. I will never let it leave my posession. <\/p>\n<p>RIP, gentlemen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had always wanted a Winchester Model 94, and when I got old enough to legally buy one, I went for it.
