And all in Canada !!!
Henry,
Can you please send me the CFM factory letter information for each one of your first Variation Model 1894s? S/Ns 75 and 2215 are new entries in my research survey.
Thanks,

Take a look at the ser# application dates and the shipping dates , ser#75 was #’rd Oct15, ’94 but didn’t ship until Feb. ’95, about the same time as #2215. Now I need a single digit gun to round out this set.

To give you a some encouragement, I have personally seen and documented serial numbers 3, 5, and 8. The factory ledger record (see picture below) is blank for serial numbers 1 – 7 and 9 – 17, but the rifles were assembled and are out there somewhere.
