Before you use, see my rules in my journal in the entry “my stock rules.”
My .30-30 caliber Winchester Model 94 “Ranger” lever-action carbine. This rifle is classically styled in the western manner and the tubular magazine holds six of the deer-stopping rounds. Designed by John Moses Browning, this gun was introduced in 1894 and the .30-30 round followed shortly after. A staple deer gun for decades afterwards, small numbers were used by stateside security personnel during both world wars. Large numbers were also used by Pancho Villa during the Mexican revolution of 1910-1920.
Mine was produced during the late 1990s and has the push button safety from that era on the receiver. If drawing a scene from decades ago using this picture as reference for a .30-30 Wincester 94, omit the push button safety!

A truely classic rifle and one of my all time favorites! Great for hunting in the close brush of New Zealand.

Thanks! Probably good for here in Iowa too, but for the most part Iowa is a shotgun slug only state for deer hunting, unfortunately. Centerfire rifles are mainly for varmints and target shooting; I bought the gun when I still lived in Kansas
