Sequential Model Numbers (Rifles) 1919-39[edit]

In 1919 Winchester abandoned numbering models by the year of introduction and assigned two-digit numbers, sequential beginning with 51 for rifles. Older guns still in production had their model numbers truncated, e.g. the Model 1912 shotgun became the Model 12. There was one exception: the unconventional 'Thumb Trigger' rifle, which was not previously numbered, was given the designation 99.[1]

Notes[edit]

  1. ^ abFirst produced in 1904, this rifle was initially marketed simply as the 'Thumb Trigger' until February 1919, when it was assigned the number 99 for the year the design was patented. Winchester simultaneously dropped the initial 2 digits from all year-numbered models for advertising reasons, so the preceding '18' was omitted from the outset. Model 99s were never actually marked as such; the designation was used only in sales literature. Houze, p. 77 & p. 94.
  2. ^ abThe model number 55 was used twice; the two rifles were entirely dissimilar and were not produced concurrently.
  3. ^66 was not used, to avoid confusion with the Model 1866
  4. ^ abWinchester added the suffix '7' to the Model 67 and 69 when equipped with telescopic sights and no provisions for iron sights. These rifles, although seemingly out of numeric sequence, can be accurately described as variants rather than separate models.
  5. ^73 was not used, to avoid confusion with the Model 1873

Winchester Firearms Manufacturing Dates by Serial Number and Year 1866 through the early 1990s

Below is the download link for a special resource for dating Winchester firearms. These pages were scanned from documents compiled over the years by the customer service department of Winchester Repeating Arms. None of the page scans are of original documents but are simply transcribed information typed into a word processing program. In general, this information is the same that you would get if you called our customer service department and asked them for the information. They use these documents as a reference and the documents should be limited to that use.

THE HISTORY OF WINCHESTER HISTORIC SERIAL NUMBER RECORDS.
There are many “legends” about why the historic serial number records for Winchester rifles and shotguns are not complete or why they are not always verifiable. A few reasons cited are:

  1. A fire at the factory
  2. Inadvertent destruction (during office cleaning)
  3. Records simply lost in filing
  4. Records misplaced between ownership transitions
  5. Documents borrowed but not returned

There is probably some kernel of truth to all of them. But the fact remains; there is no original, single, totally accurate database of serial numbers from 1866 forward that we are aware of. But perhaps these pages can help you somewhat in your research.

Please keep the following points in mind as you explore these pages:

  • Many of the Winchester brand firearms produced over the years are included, but not all. If your firearm is not listed, we probably do not have any additional information.
  • Before the 1990s the Winchester Repeating Arms firearms brand transferred ownership several times. Any information before the 1990s is always difficult to verify.
  • In general, only serial number ranges with an approximate year are provided in this document. There is no other detail beyond this that we can provide.
  • Since this information was provided through old documents (both official and otherwise), no representation is made that all serial number and year combinations are totally accurate.
  • In some exceptional cases, a more detailed, accurate determination can be made by calling the Winchester Repeating Arms Historian at the Morgan, Utah office. 800-333-3288. Ask for the Winchester Repeating Arms Historian.
  • For any other questions: 800.333.3288 or 801.876.2711. For Parts and Service call: 800.322.4626
  • For questions related to Ammunition don’t call us. Contact Winchester Ammunition directly.
  • No attempt has been made to determine the value of any guns listed.
  • The Cody Firearms Museum has more information on Winchesters produced before 1900.
  • This late historian George Madis compiled extensive histories on Winchester firearms. www.georgemadis.com
