This rifle is '70 manufacture. As a matter of fact, I bought,errrrr, Mom bought two at the same time.

I was 13, wanted to go deer hunting and asked my Dad to take me. He said he would but we didn't have rifles.

I asked him that if he had one, what would it be. He replied "M94 Winchester, in .30-30". There were some options in caliber at that time. I believe you could get .32 Special, also.

I had been cutting grass and delivering papers for two years, and had saved about all the money I had made. So, I rode my bike down to the store, asked the man what a M94 costs and he told me "65 dollars". I said "Two of them will go about 135 with tax, then" He laughed until I pulled out the money and started counting, got real serious and said "Son, I can't sell you those guns!"

I said "Mom will be here shortly, let me pick two out and I'll go get her".

I still have both of them.
