it Is expected that the first lot will BE-
ready for the fall market. The weapon
is to be called the Winchester Model,
'94." The breech mechanism bears some
resem olance to the model $50 rife. Yet
the new gun is widely different from this
in several points of construction. The
new gun, like most of the rifles made by
the Winchester company. is of the finger
lever type, but an important change is
the location of the magazine, which is
placed in the stock. The magazine is to
De charged from the receiver mortise, or
breach. The finger lever will operate a
vertical breach block, which is consid-
cred the strongest construction in this
type of rifles. The rifle is designated to
use the new style, small calibre ammuni-
ton of which the Lebel cartridge is the
prototype. The new arm is made in two
calibres, 80 40 and 1896.
