Winchester, or at the time US Repeating Arms under the Winchester name, produced four rifles with the designation of a model 94 Angle Eject Big Bore in the 20 inch carbine configuration in just four calibers back around the early to mid eighties.
I own the .307 and .356 Winchester, and the .444 Marlin versions. Each of these has that fugly cross bolt safety on them with straight comb stocks.
The fourth caliber that was produced in the Angle Eject Big Bore was the .375 Winchester. From what I can tell it was only produced for one year in the Angle Eject vs. the traditional top eject that had preceded the others and had been in production for several years. I also understand that this particular one year production rifle came with the canoe paddle style of buttstock rather than the straight comb like the other three, ick.
I am curious if anyone here knows whether or not that particular production was bastardized by the cross bolt safety like most all of the others, (some of the very early .307 and .356 models did not in fact have it), or was it unmarred by it?
