i have a model 62. it has serial number 192890. long forearm, 17 grooves. the barrel is stamped 62, i thought it was and should be marked 62A. i know that the barrel was never changed. any ideas?
|
|
What does the barrel proof mark look like is it an oval P or Oval pw or both combined
|
|
it has pw in an oval on the barrel and on the reciever
|
|
When you turn the gun over and look behind the trigger guard do you see one screw hole or 4 screw holes
|
|
on the tang there is one screw hole on the end of the tang, and serial number in the middle of the tang.

You have a third type model 62 barrel which is a 62-2
|
|
it is stamped 62- . i thought it would have 62a stamp because of the manufacture date. i was t aware of a model 62-2
|
|
The roll stamp reads
Made in New Haven .Conn -winchester - model 62- ----- u.s.of America-------trade mark ------ 22 s.l.orl.r.- Correct |
|
yes that is correct
|
|
It's due to the result of the factory using the older model 62 barrels until they were gone 62a was used later
Ohhh and welcome to the forum I'm new also |
|
i thought that might be the answer. i have a model 21 that defies all research to. a four digit gun that is a post war gun. thank you for the help
|
|
if these gun companies were that frugal today they might not be going out of business
|
|
Ohhh interested I probably think I already have the 21 answer email me the details
|
|
Lawyers pretty hard on the gun companies
