No I have the Little Bighorn Tony. I acquired the Winchester commemorative book vol 2 and saw there was a 7th Calvary commemorative in 1978. One sold on Guns America and stated only 999 made.

( Winchester US 7th Cavalry 1894 commemorative 30-30 carbine There was only 999 actually MFG in 1978 .The buttstoke and forearm are Beautiful  American walnut. Also comes with a extra  book on the 7th cavalry The presention case is abour 95% there is a small chip on the lid and a small crack in the plastic liner. The carbine is 98 to 100 %).

Ya I know I can’t find any other info on it either, just the photo at the end of the Winchester commemorative book Vol 2 & the for sale post on Guns America. Maybe someone else might pipe in with some background on it. It’s a real beauty.

It was sitting on top of a gun display and was so pretty I had to look at it. Never heard of these before.

I was finally able to talk with the shop owner.  He doesn’t remember what the exact model of commemorative this gun is.  He shipped it to his daughter’s store in Arizona to be put in an upcoming auction.  https://www.reatapassauctions.com/news-events/
