It wouldn't surprise me if there's a couple more variations out there, every time I think I know something about Winchesters, I don't. crazy
Thank you, that's the kind of encouraging reply, as a "newbie here" I was looking for. The only markings I could find, other that the standard rollstampings on the receiver backside, were the single letters W and H- I had to remove the slender sporter forearm, and the H is found on the recessed receiver boss at 3'oclock, the W on the opposite side at 9'oclock--
