OK… but it is your addiction !
True enough. It’s a very unremarkable 70% gun but it appears solid and unmolested, unlike my bank account. 😉

Are you sure it is a type 2 receiver? All of the Model 94s I have surveyed thus far with serial numbers > 1473000 have a Type 3 receiver frame.

Gary,
The serial number on your Model 94 Carbine indicates that it was manufactured 4-years before the Flat-band was introduced. Can you send me clear pictures of the barrel band, and the factory markings on the barrel and upper tang?

Bert, it is my error, I purchased the rifle advertised as a flat band, just picked it up at the gun shop and it is a regular band model 94 serial number 1340813.Sorry for the error

No problem… does it have the Type 7 upper tang marking? Is it drilled & tapped for a tang sight? Most of the very late 1942 production Model 94 Carbines were not drilled & tapped for a tang sight.
