>cross bolt safety
>94 sized receiver for .357 instead of a 92 receiver

>>64058654
Look I can't be too much of a choser, the market is not great here and 44 is way stupid expensive

Also I took the scope off and put a truglo fibre optic on it plus a leather butt stock

>>64058664
.44 would fit in a 92 action too. the 94 action is really long for .44 mag or .357 mag. was that made in like the 70s or something when they weren't making 1892s?

>>64058681
its a carbine btw

>>64058681
No these are 2003 I think from the serial

thoughts

>>64058691
that might still be from the time period where they weren't making 1892s
>>64058683
that's not what I'm complaining about. John Moses Browning made 4 lever gun designs for Winchester. 1 is the 1895 what >>64058735 posted.
the other 3 fit into the same family with the 1886, 1892 and 1894. the only real difference between the 1886, 1892 and 1894 is how big the receiver/action is. The 1886 is the big framed gun, the 1892 is the small framed gun and the 1894 is the medium framed gun. sometime around WWII winchester stopped making 1892s because they were only selling them to farmers in South America and were only making 1894s, the medium action. then .44 mag and .357 mag and .45 long colt got big but instead of bringing back the tooling for the 1892 they just built 1894s in those smaller rounds so you have an action way bigger than it needs to be because it was cheaper for winchester to only make 1 receiver size.

>>64058582
>works great in winter
Bullshit. Nobody installed them until the 1950's, they're movie props. They don't help in winter at all, transferring the rationale of enlarged trigger guards to lever loops is just ergonomic blindness.
If you're wearing heavy gloves it's much harder to perform finger abduction, which is necessary for the trigger finger to span the divide between the loop and trigger if your hand is INSIDE the loop.
The finger movement which heavy gloves interfere with the least, and the one which is virtually isolated if you position your hand OUTSIDE the loop, is flexion. Bigger loops don't help do this, if anything they interfere by making it more difficult to meaningfully contact both the outside of the loop and the stock simultaneously.
Also, regardless of which method you use to cycle the lever, bigger loops effectively position the lever further from the shoulder, increasing the degree to which the stock interferes with cycling the action.
There is no practical advantage to them at all, people suggest "cold weather" casually without actually thinking about it.

>>64059182
nah, you are fat, fatty fatty boom boom.

>>64059182

>>64059208
>Nor have you ever used a large loop.
Nor had anyone, ever, for the many decades that lever actions were the combat arm of the semi-settled West. They didn't use them because no-one made them. No-one made them because they're unergonomic. People back then who used their guns to eat and survive didn't have the luxury to diminish their effectiveness for fashionable fancies, which is the only thing adding a big loop achieves.
Big loops exist so that actors can spin the rifles, that's not just a practical and ergonomic reality, it's an uncontroverted historical fact.

>>64059305
>Big loops exist so that actors can spin the rifles,
So that Chuck Connors could spin the rifle. Everybody else, including John Wayne, were simply imitating the master.

>>64059338
My dad fucking loves Chuck Connors for some reason. I brought the show and he started talking about how Chuck Connors played baseball and shit

>>64059908
Somehow I've only ever seen him in Branded, a much shorter production he did after The Rifleman.
I don't know any other way to say this, but he looks like Lurch from the Addams Family, just has a really square Frankenstein head.

And despite never having seen The Rifleman, I still want a fucking Mare's Leg.

>>64059241
Not really. Just large hands.

>>64059305
T. Has never used a large lever but wants to talk ergonomics. As if having ro grab the lever upside down to rack it is faster than an oversized loop.

I've got a 70s model 94
Whoever owned it before me lacquered the receiver to preserve the faux case hardening on the cast receiver
Should I leave it or strip it
Also does anybody know how the wood was finished or is that a better question for the winchester forums

>>64057901
Others will disagree but this is the peak.
There is literally nothing better.

>>64064186
you own the gayest looking lever and you weigh 600 lbs and you suck dicks

>>64058755
Except the 94 is a completely different action that dumps the innards out to fit a rifle cartridge?

>>64064575
it's like a slightly longer 1892 that drops the bottom of the receiver and trigger so the lever stroke/bolt travel can accommodate rounds longer than a 1892 action of that size could

>>64061182
>based fellow xxl hand sized man

Handlets never learn. They project. They truly don’t know the power of a 130lb+ grip strength. The only problem I have is even xl nitrile mechanic gloves are too small and tear easily.

If you lift even moderately heavy at all, you’ll find your fingers getting thicker over time. Not even embellishing.

If you're using it as a deer gun, why no sling? I was annoyed having to constantly hold my 10/22 on my first few small game hunts before I got a sling for it, and thats with a rifle that weighs less than 5 lbs
Also, to add my 2 cents to the squabbling about lever loops, I think that while about 90% over oversized lever loop users do it for aesthetics, there are genuine use cases for em like in your case where you need to manipulate it with large gloved hands. That being said, the vast majority of people still using lever guns have 0 need for it. The argument that they're useless purely because people in the past didn't think to make em is purely an appeal to tradition and should be disregarded and ignored as you should any argument this fucking retarded

I hunt with multiple different guns. They all dont need a sling. I do have slings for certain guns depending on what the activity is but hunting rifles I dont feel need slings. I also have a backpack with a scabbard if I feel the need to not carry it. I dont have an issue carrying the gun around all day. Ive carried much heavier for longer distances without a sling. If you cant hike around with a sub 5lb gun with no sling than it may be time to hit the gym. Honestly you should be able to carry any sub10lb gun all day without a sling.

As for the big loop theres no point in discussing it as that dude is clearly retarded. Picrel

>>64066238
Aesthetic wise the 73 is perfection. While >>64066398 is pretty close, the true order for aesthetics is win 73 > win92 > marlin 94. If you are going for what the best shooter is for specifically 357 than Uberti 73 > Marlin 94 > Chiappa 92 > Win 73/92 > Rossi 92 > Henry Big Boy.

The 73 is the smoothest lever and there is no current 357 on the market that you can blow up the internals with. The win 92 action is way stronger than the 73, but theres no 357 mag cartidges that can use that extra strength. If you were going with 45lc or 44mag than the win 92 is the clear winner.

>>64066727
66 > 73
The 73 is kinda blocky looking comparatively

>>64054784 (OP)

I agree they would absolutely hold SAAMI rounds no problem. But these guns are proofed for 357mag CIP. Saami is 35kpsi, CIP is 44kpsi. CIP requires testing and making sure the gun can run at 30% more pressure than max pressure (57kpsi) which is likely why they only proof them for 38spl

The 357 carroer has quite a bit of extra room. I wouldnt think the 38spl lifter would be too small. If it is than just use a 38spl case and charge her like a 357mag, only reason for the extra length on the 357 was to ensure you dont put them in 38spl guns.
