First, would you hunt using the 30-30 cartridge, regardless of rifle platform?
Second, would you pay $1670 + tax for a reproduction Model 94?

I wouldn't, but I am curious what your feelings are.

First..yeah I'd hunt with a .30-30 ( I have...many times...and successfully...)
And Second: NO I wouldnt pay that for a repro with an Angle-eject receiver, redundant tang safety etc.

Theres still plenty of vintage M94s out there, even pre-64s for less than the price of that comical POS
