A cousin has a Winchester 94 with a broken/chipped stock. The bottom screw area split off from the rest of the stock. His dad years ago tried to fix it but did a poor job. So I thought I would help him out and try to find a replacement stock. Knowing serial numbers may make a difference, I looked it up. It falls in the 1943 to 1947 "no record" years. I thought that was interesting, and never even thought civilian rifles would have been made during that time. Serial #1,221,2xx.
Probably nothing special but I thought it was interesting. 94 is being passed down to a grandson, so hopefully it will be back in the woods chasing deer!!
