I have a 1911 production 1894 in 25-35 and the spur is broken from the hammer. Will I need to find a specific hammer for that year0range production or will any pre-64 hammer work?

Thanks in advance.

If you want it to be as close to original as possible, then Yes, you need a specific hammer. In the year 1911, Winchester was using the 2nd style hammer. 1st style hammers were used from September 1894 through March 1903. The 2nd style hammer was used from March 1903 through 1946.

I believe this is the style you’re looking for

Yes, that is the correct hammer for a 1911 vintage Model 1894.
