    Winchester 94 Legendary Frontiersman 38-55

    Purchased a Winchester 1894 Leg. Frontiersman some months ago. Unfired.
    After having acquiring a precision Accurate mold, 4-bags of Starline brass, RCBS Cowboy Dies, and a Williams FP sight my work started.
    I have been shooting the rifle for some months with moderate loads obtaining great accuracy.
    Extremely pleased. Then I noticed one day the magazine tube had slipped out. Carefully set it back.
    Few more range sessions. Then disaster.
    The magazine holder/hanger split and the tube and forearm shot out a few feet from my bench.
    Cannot find any parts or Winchester Authorized repair facility that can repair it. No parts.
    Any ideas, or is the gun and equipment a total loss?

    Saw that as well. Tried all the numbers in my home state, and others. No parts.
    Would not take the job.

    Back in the day I converted a 30-30 to 38-55 with parts from GPC/ Numerich, I may still have a magazine tube hanger somewhere.
    Otherwise I would call Jack First I'll bet they would have parts.
