I Lied!
I picked my new 1885 Winchester today! It is new in 22WMR. I need to order scope bases, already have rings. It seems very well built, not as flashy as the Brownings, it does have a good trigger. Now if I can start shooting maybe I won't play on the computer as much. I had a problem with two Winchester 94s years ago, swore never again. When I realized that the same people make the Brownings and Winchesters, I thought why not. My Great Grandfather had a hardware store in the early twentieth century and sold Winchesters. So over 100 years later there is a Winchester in the family again.

Lots of differences between 94's and 1885's, so I guess you can say that you have kept your pledge by not buying another 94. Thats smart thinking.

Does that mean that it doesn't have that Gold trigger bling and the stupid deer head logo emblazoned on it? Hope so.

Winchester 1885 22 WMR
It doesn't have a gold trigger or Buck head on the trigger guard. The gold trigger and Buck heads haven't hampered the accuracy of my two Browning 1885s. What the Winchester has is very nicely polished and blued metal, well fit furniture with a satin finish. I hope I can find ammo that the Winchester likes since it is a rimfire. I have a CZ 452 FS in 22 WMR that likes CCI TMJs. I have those and several others to try. My scope bases are due tomorrow, hope to shoot Thursday.
