Top 10 Things You Didn't Know About The Winchester Model 94
The Winchester Model 94, invented by John Browning in 1894, is an iconic lever-action rifle, originally firing black powder but transitioning to smokeless rounds with the advent of nickel steel. It achieved significant sales milestones, including being the first sporting rifle to sell over 7 million units. Controversies arose in 1964 due to cost-cutting measures like sintered steel receivers, a shift later reversed by FN Herstal's acquisition and subsequent return to machined steel.
