Pre-1964, and it directly relates to the material type and machining process that were used.
The serial number is the easiest way to determine if it is a Pre-1964 or a Post-1963 production receiver frame. S/N 2600011 was the last Pre-1964. S/N 2700000 was the first Post-1963. All serial numbers in the 2600012 – 2699999 were skipped (not used).
In addition to the S/N, the physical configuration (location) of the screws used to assemble the receiver frame are noticeably different (see the attached pictures).
Pre-1964

You will need to send pictures of your Model 94 to me so that I can attempt to determine what is amiss.
