yeah , i was never keen on the angle eject side safety model . "it's not a traditional 94..." i'd tell anybody . but ya know what , it's a really nice well made gun and the receivers are made out of better steel on this model apparently
shoulders really nice with this stock . cheek weld seems to suit a scope or red dot as well as the open sights too . although that might be because of my big square head i'm not called "big rich" for nuthin' i'm half hearted about scoping it , don't want to upset that classic '94 carry and ballance
Yeah I still regret selling mine it was an early eighties model and after I tweaked the rifle it was actually quite accurate.
And I hear you on the head I got one like a watermelon.
there is a very slight chance I may be Able to purchase mine back 1 day just waiting for the Phone call
i've heard the term "kit gun" used on rossi's as they need tweaking to get them smooth . i think that applies to most lever guns in some way or form . i like projects anyway i'm going to look at the mounting of the mag tube to try to nullify any "pull" on the barrel . the only thing about this rifle is it's a bit gappy with the inletting for the but stock to receiver and tang . i remember in2anity did a post about accurizing lever guns by using bedding compound to close up these gaps around the receiver and butt stock . i might look at that after a bit . gunna shoot it first and foremost
