I’ve got Model 94 I’d like to have someone tear apart, clean-up and refinish. I’d do it myself but it’s old and a family heirloom...so I’d rather someone more knowledgeable tackle it. Anyone have a guy/gal? Im in Tumwater but willing to travel wherever for the right person.
Thanks!
Nate

Not horribly old...if I remember right it was built around 1937. The gun is in pretty good shape from what I can tell. No cracks, rust, just normal hunting wear. Would just like to get it back to "showroom" condition.

Not all used a 30 30 a Savage Model 99 in 300 Savage took my first one.
There is one savage 99 in 300 savage my dad has was his first rifle and I shot my first muley with it. Both my brother's shot there first deer with a model 94 in 32special that was grandpa's. Now in the family we have 4 model 94's and 2 model 99 both are a great brush gun nice short package easy to swing in the thick stuff we love them and keep them clean and nice, but they still get packed all over the countryside and used and earn there keep. We also have a large collection of Winchester model 70's in a spattering of calibers oh did I mention every winchester we have is a pre 64 :chuckle: several of which were pawnshop buys they can still be found in great shape

Some smith in Vancouver, WA did the work 10 years ago, don't know who. Worthwhile return on investment.
