Pretty sure the 1894 came in 22mag but it’s late and I’m exhausted so could be wrong also.

That is correct and they are hard to find, many say that they didn't feed well.

Had a New in box 1894M sold for $3,000. GB look up #908585375
1983 model.

 

I have an 1894M in .22 mag. VERY ACCURATE! Never had any type of feeding problems. I don't shoot it much. It occupies a niche.

 

NO. They made 1894M in .22 mag. The 39 would sustain the mag. pressure over time.

 

The 1894M was one of the few 1894's with no side loading gate - tube loading only.

 

Yes, the 1894M was always on my bucket list but the opportunity never presented itself. I good friend of mine bought one at a local gunshow in like new condition and I was so envious.

 

I found this one locally a few years ago. Great shooter and no feeding issues so far. I believe they made just over 12,000 of them.

 

I went with a Winchester 9422 Magnum instead for almost half the cost.

 

Well I love my Levermatic shoots good & works every time.

 

I have an 1894 22mag, Very few made it down under so when it came up for sale at a very reasonable price I nearly gave myself whiplash reaching for my phone. Shoots beautiful and zero issues. (other than the price of ammo for it)

 

I did the something Waffletop and it's a great rifle to shoot. But if i got a good deal i'd take a 1894 M and keep both.

 

I forgot that I also have a 57M, I would like a 1894M but I dont want to pay 1200 and up for one, some do have reliability issues with jamming, It's a crapshoot on if you will get a good one. I think that may have been one of the reasons it was discontinued.

 

I have had two of them and both shot poorly and fed well. I sold them both.
They are very well made. The 22 mag was was too long to work in the 39A action. The 39A action was more than strong enough to handle the 22 mag pressures. The 1894 was the logical choice for the 22 mag cartridge.

 

1894M on GB right now. Looks to be in need of a bit of TLC but ............

I paid just over 700 for my 1894M 4 years ago. Shoots and feeds very well. Almost new condition when I bought it. It doesn’t shoot quite as well as my Savage 93 but close. It’s a keeper.
