Item Description
Bryant Ridge Co. is pleased to present this lever-action rifle today for a penny-start auction; this is the Winchester Model 94 Legendary Frontiersmen Commemorative.
In 1979, Winchester produced 19,999 Model 94 Legendary Frontiersmen rifles in their New Haven, Connecticut, USA factory. The serial numbers ran consecutively from LF1 to LF19999.
SPECIFICATIONS:
Manufacturer: Winchester
Model: 94 Legendary Frontiersmen
Serial: LF04819
Date of Manufacture: 1979
Caliber: .38-55 Winchester
Finish: Blue with Antique Silver Plated Receiver
Barrel Length: 24" Round
Optics/Sights: Blade Front with Adjustable Semi-Buckhorn Rear
Stock/Grips: Fleur-De-Lis Checkered Walnut Straight Grip Stock and Forearm
Action: Lever
Markings: Standard / The right side of the barrel is marked “Legendary Frontiersman”. Both sides of the receiver show decorative scroll and border engraving. The right side of the receiver shows wild animals and a frontiersman greeting Indians. The left side of the receiver shows an eagle swooping prey and a frontiersman on horseback guiding other horses. There is a medallion on the right side of the buttstock depicting an Indian and a frontiersman in battle.
Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
When the Winchester Model 1894 lever-action was introduced, it was chambered in .38-55. The other famous Winchester cartridges for the Model 94, the .25-35, .30-30, and .32 Special, are all based on a necked-down .38-55 case. In 2011, Winchester brought back the Model 94 as a regular production item in .38-55, and we reviewed a new Winchester Model 94 Sporter .38-55 Rifle in 2012. Previously, the easiest way to get a modern .38-55 rifle suitable for use with heavy (+P) loads was to purchase a Model 94 Legendary Frontiersmen (1979), Oliver Winchester (1980), or Chief Crazy Horse (1983) commemorative in the caliber. These Winchester commemoratives are seldom actually used, but they are excellent and very accurate hunting rifles.

These post-1964 Model 94 actions were the later type with good steel receivers and improved shell elevators and loading gates. They predate the introduction of the Model 94 AE (angle eject for scope mounting, which became standard in 1984), but the top eject receiver is drilled and tapped for mounting receiver (peep) sights.
