Hi All;
I normally post on the smallbore forum. A question about reliable Winchester serial number data was posted there. This brought up a question on the 1942 barrel dated Riot/Trench guns. From the resources I have and what was posted by other members, all of the 42 barrel dated shotguns have post war receivers according to the serial number list that is supposed to have came from Winchesters records.
My questions are: Are there any known 42 barrel dated receivers in the correct serial number range for 1942-1943 [891191-912265] period? Are the Winchester published dates incorrect? Did the military have their own serial numbers assigned to the 97?
