RE: Preferred Rifle

I don't see nearly as many 94's being used as model 92's, 73's, or Marlins. They seem more prone to jamming than the others mentioned. They were designed to feed rifle length cartridges and only recently modified to shoot pistol length cartridges. My thought is why not get a gun that was designed for pistol length cartridges in the first place.

The smoothest action would have to be the 73's, that's what I shoot. The strongest would be the 92's or the Marlins. As far as calibers goes the .45 Colt seems to be a favorite.

I think I just about tried them all and I am now shooting a Model 66 rifle. The action is very smooth. I am new with the computer and just found this site.

94' Marlin all the way! I can't stand having empties hit me in the head while I'm aiming my next shot.

RE: Preferred Rifle

The Winchester has been made in .45 Colt for many years now.
