Did Winchester offer in 1948, 1949, or 1950 an option to order a model 94 carbine with factory installed sling swivel studs?

Tionesta,

Did you see the "map" guy with the 94 with sling eyes at the gun show in the North Hills?As far as i know the factory sling eye stud is 4 inches from the toe,usually.

John,

Yes I did see it at that gun show. So you don’t think they’re factory?

Thanks,

Al,

No they were not,he fed me the same line and I just remained silent .the buttstock sling eye was to close to the toe,winchester wouldn’t have made it that way….He wants internet prices for all of his guns .He has a Birthday party for them every year and some are ready to collect SS.
