I think the production figure of 26,000 often quoted for the Stevens High Power lever gun is incorrect. I think the correct production figure is only about 5,000 total. I own serial number 4837, in .32 Rem, and in checking other sources I have found the following serial numbers:

2628
4011
40xx
4837 (mine)

If anyone has a Stevens High Power lever gun, please post your serial number. I would be very surprised if any number is higher than 5000.
Thanks,
Peter
