You can also order it on Amazon but I think they collect Texas sales tax.

Because I know a nice Sharps can turn the head of the most avid Winchester collector,  the authors of the 4-volume set have published a boiled down Collector's Guide that summarizes all the relevant details of every model.and style. It is beautifully and copiously illustrated and well worth the price. About sixty bucks hardbound. Mine came yesterday and you want it for your reference library. 
  

Where can I order this?

It's unfortunate to hear this, as You and I had a nice transaction back in the spring time here.

You're too good of a guy to have this happen to you!

I'm in agreement with Bert.

I sent Venmo 1/2 of payment 
 
i have sent certified Ck if full amount to other WACA members without a problem and since this message was on WACA forms from M70hunter I assumed he was real 
I will now meet everyone in person even if that means flying across country or not buy anything
if you look at the first message it came M70hunter registered on here
  

Randy,

Rule #1...  Never send any form of electronic payment to an unknown "seller'.  That is a dead giveaway that it is a SCAM.  Unfortunately, the WACA website (forums) is routinely targeted by Scammers (just as thousands of other websites are targeted by the Scammers around the globe).

Rule #2... if the seller is not an active full WACA Member, proceed with caution!  Always engage in direct communication with a seller prior to sending any funds.  If a seller is not willing to talk with you (phone call), that too is a strong clue that you are dealing with a Scammer.

Sorry to hear this brother Randy! I would check out Guntab for future use. Anyone can sign up for it and it is an escrow system that holds the money and won’t release to the seller until tracking proves it was delivered and you confirm it is as represented or 3 days passes if you don’t respond. I love it as both a buyer and a seller. Works with cc or ach check. I hope you get your money back my friend! If you find him let us know if you need help hiding the body 😀 if I don’t hear otherwise I can vouch you were at church all day the day he disappeared so it couldn’t be you! 😳

Per the WACA registration information, M70hunter is Keith Brouhard and his email is - keithbrouhard@gmail.com.

You did not mention what form of payment you sent to the alleged seller.

Bert

I started to cross check the serials of the Winchester 44's to my survey to see if I get a hit on one I have info on. I had serial 28311 and its a rifle with a extra heavy 30" barrel. That does not sound like a gun you would issue unless you didn't have any ammo and used it to beat the enemy.  I have seen in the list low serial numbers that would fall into the first model 73's that say they are 38 and 32 calibers. I believe all the low serial number Winchesters in 44 are 92's

Bob,
I did some checking, and all of the low serial numbered 44's on the page you posted are indeed Model 1892 44 Caliber Carbines, and they are all on the same order number #7619.
Do you have copies of any additional pages with serial numbers and calibers?
Bert
  

Hey Bert
I'm pretty curious how you found this order number and are able to make these connections. I've been trying to find proof of the order for the rebel arms in 1894, but am having a hard time locating any definitive records. Sorry if this is a newbie question, but I have information like the city that the order was placed in, around what time of year, and the number of arms, just trying to get a receipt or some kind of proof of purchase. Let me know if you could point me in the right direction!
  

As Bob mentioned, it is a simple check in the factory ledger records (located at the Cody Firearms Museum research office).  With just a quick search, I found at least (75) model 1892 44 caliber carbines listed with the same order # 7619.  It will take a considerable amount of time to review all of the records to find exactly how many Model 1892s were sold to the CHG.
