I have a well used 71 and a nice 64 as well as a Browning 65. All nice guns. I have always preferred the 64 to the 94. Every rifleman ought to have at least one 30-30.
It would be nice to find an original 65, but one in as nice a shape as my Browning would cost 4 times as much. I'm not that strong a traditionalist. In fact I have thought often of trading my well used 71 for a newer Browning 71 because I think they are generally a more accurate gun than the originals. My Browning 65 is a tack driver.
