I purchased a 1987 model 94ae long barrel(24 inch). I have been able to find very limited info on this gun. I do know it was only manufactured for 1 year 1987-88 by United States Repeating Arms Company in New Haven, Conn. Anymore info someone might have as to how many were manufactured, rare or not, and maybe a value would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Seems to me I read somewhere these late model 94ae and 94ae xtr rifles were made with no safety, with tang safety and with 'push through button' receiver safeties. My ae xtr is; 7-30 Waters, has no safety and is checkered, my 18 inch bbl. 30-30 trapper ae is plain wood and a push through safety.Both were made in the 1980's.
Close, but no cigar.
The USRACo introduced the "AE" in 1984. The cross-bolt (push through) safety was first introduced in 1992/1993, and the tang safety was introduced in 2003.
