Gents, I have stumbled across an OLD, 1910 – ish model 94, 15″ Bbl, that has been nikel plated…….
What are the odds that this is a factory finish, did they do that????
Thanks.

The odds are very high that not only is the nickel plating not original, but the 15″ barrel is a cut down. Is it a Rifle or a Carbine? What is the serial number?

It’s a Trapper, and the 15″ would appropriate for the year made………….. S/n I will know tomorrow…
They made them in 14, 15 and 16″

As of today, there were just (5) 15-inch Trapper Carbines manufactured in the year 1910, and none of them were factory nickel plated.

Finally got eyes on it today, it is a Saddle Ring, 15″ Bbl, 30 WCF, NOT original finish.
S/n 1,021,XXX which makes it around 1927.
guy had it on a boat in salt water, and had it nikle finished, plus every time they finished the wood on the boat, they finished the wood on the model 94…..
thanks guys……………..
