I am looking at this 1894 made in 1908. Something does not look right with the location of the magazine tube ring. Is this right?563E71F4-47FA-45DF-8804-3F7E8587B55D.jpegImage Enlarger17174167-4FA5-42FF-BACF-5C7AB697C478.jpegImage Enlarger

Your instincts are right on.  That rifle is not right.  I would speculate barrel shortened, magazine shortened, and the mag tube retaining band is not in the correct location.
