I just got the 23″ rifle in the mail today, from a fellow W.A.C.A. member, after nearly 3 months, in the mail, and import/export system, any ways I’m happy and it fits right in between the 22″ and the 24″. My next endeavor is a 36″ so if You have one kickin’ around , I may be Your man.
. This makes 13 of the various known barrel lengths, 14″, 15″, 16″, 18″, 20″, 211/2″, 22″, 23″, 24″, 26″, 28″, 30″, 32″ and counting.

Henry,
Very Nice! 
I have had my hands on two of the 36-inch rifles (both 38-55s), but it has been at least 10-years since I last saw one of them (at the Cody show).

Beautiful pic and great set up Henry!It takes me about the same time to export them out of Canada so at least they are consistent coming and going! Does Canada require they get an import stamp like the US does? I’ll keep an eye out for that 36” for you!

No We don’t need an import stamp, thank heavens. I just can’t imagine why the U.S. would want to stamp a gun thay was manufactured in the U.S. and returning home, but they do.

I’ve logged that 23″ a couple times before….. and it was in Canada not that long ago as I recall, with one of your fellow Canadian collectors. As you know, that’s only one of (6) 23″ in the letterable range. A rare shortie, for sure.
Hope you are well, my friend.
