I chose to put this under, “What’s New”, vs anywhere else, because RIA, actually accredited the WACA, with the serial number timeline, vs. the Madis out of date information, in their description. This is not meant to be a knock on George in any way, but just an information update as time allows us.
In RIA’s defense, I give them credit for bringing this to light.
Another way to look at this is to not even try to educate the past Madis quotes, and just list it as a year 1900 manufactured SRC!
Again, at least RIA, is listening to the many calls, from the members here, with the many hours of up dated information, from the timeless surveys and dedicated searches that are constantly being done.

Tony,
I have observed a decent number of RIA’s listing in the past year or so with the “Winchester Collectors Association indicates” statement, and I applaud them for doing so. They also usually show a copy of the factory letter which is also greatly appreciated.

Bert,
Once again I’m in agreement with you, and remember you saying this. I feel we’re the Era that’s kinda in a transitional information period, and it’s almost our duty, to do much of what members like yourself has been doing, and educating the masses. Showing the factory letters id important.
