Sequential Model Numbers (Rifles) 1919-39

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, with one exception: the unconventional "Thumb Trigger" rifle, which was not previously numbered, was given the designation 99.[1]

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 Although first produced in 1904, this rifle was initially marketed simply as the "Thumb Trigger" until February 1919 when it was assigned the model 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. 2.0 2.1 The 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. 4.0 4.1 Winchester 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
