I have been waiting so long to get one of these. Internet searches every other day for long time with no luck until today. During my search I did locate one in a Cabela's located in Missouri on Guns International, but when I called, it had been sold, my heart sank. My love affair with the .25-35 started in 1982 when I obtained a Contender barrel. I took my first deer with a handgun using that Contender 10" barrel. Over the years I have hoarded brass, waiting for the day to come along. Looked at many older models, but they were either too rough or way above my budget. When Winchester announced in 2017 they were producing the model 94 in .25-35, I thought my dream had come true, but up until now all I ever saw was the carbines or short rifles. However I had to have the longer barrel (24") sporter. Today my search on Gunbroker was successful, a buy-it-now listing was found. My fingers have never worked a keyboard faster, I hit that button so hard I think I dented it. UPS can not deliver it fast enough. I am so happy that I had to share my joy with all of you!
