I acquired a Winchester 94 model made in 1912, on the receiver is stamped J. Hardy, and underneath the stamp is the number 1. Would anyone know the meaning of this?

Serial number?
Rifle or Carbine?
Caliber?
The marking you mention is most likely a previous owner.

The serial number is: 611337, and the Caliber is 30 W.C.F.
It is a carbine

Per the original Winchester factory records, s/n 611337 was manufactured in July 1913. The caliber and variation are both the most common for that time period.
