Gotcha. The word Winchester on the barrel pic looked like it might have been worked. Both that and the beautiful condition had me questioning it. Thanks
I understand. I guess I was asking if there was a way to tell when I get my eyes on them. Maybe something in particular to pay attention to or to look for.
I need a little advice on two Winchesters I might have the opportunity to purchase. All I have right now is the pics I am attaching. The rifle on the right looks nearly perfect which makes me think it is a new model. However, it is chambered in 38 wcf which I didn’t think was a new production...
Thanks for the site crippen. It seems there is very little info for these. I did find an auction site that sold one box of 50 for $46. But, other than that...nothing. I'm glad I found them though. They will be a great addition to the man room.

I recently shot in a GSSF tournament (Dawsonville) for the first time and got absolutely hooked. I couldn't wait for the next one in Conyers, so I went and shot the Griffin Steel Match. I had a blast at both and can't wait for more. Just curious, how many members on ODT regularly shoot...
