I just acquired a 1907, manufactured in 1908 & I'm trying to find out if Winchester offered them in different grades.
This particular gun has exceptionally well figured wood on the forearm, checkering on the grip & forearm & a cheek piece. The pistol grip flares towards the butt & it has a pressed steel, rather than bakelite(?) grip cap.
I've seen a couple of online photos of checkered guns, but none with a cheek piece.

Do i have something special, something very well home/custom made, or does my internet researching just suck?

What a beauty! I'm no expert, but the Cody Firearms Museum has an extensive collection of Winchester company records. If it was custom ordered from the factory, they may be able to provide you with some documentation of it. Either way, the craftsmanship is evident.

Jake, Sorry to bug you again. I was wondering if you could share a. couple actual pics of this crossbow with me?

Xpedition Archery USED Scrapeline390X Sniper Gray Crossbow XACW1001 - Light Wear - Needs Bolt/Arrow Guide Spring UA5689​

If it is in a decent shape, would you be willing to sell it for $100 shipped? IS it missing the retention spring that goes over the bolt?
Thank you Ferenc

Good morning John, I just read your setup procedure for the northstar duplicator ator. I found it very hand and I did learn some things. I have the same machine and I am having a problem i can not figure out and was hoping you could shed some light on the subject.
