I just heard this this afternoon at my local gun dealer. He says, "you'd better keep that Model 94 you just bought, there won't be any more.
In fact, I just bought a Model 9422 in .22 L.R., color case hardened receiver, 20 inch barrel and a model 94 in .45 Colt, color case hardened receiver, 20 inch octagonal barrel. Both very well made. Here's a couple of photos, first the Mdl. 94, then the model 9422.
Well made arms, both of them. I'm going to order another model 94 on Monday in a fairly uncommon caliber, and then I'll have to be happy I guess.
