Your gun was made in 1920.  The attached link will take you to a sight that can give you, for a fee, the exact date the serial number was applied.  No other records are available.

Jerry,

If you are really interested in the history of the Model 1906 you might want to invest in a copy of Ned Schwing’s Volume 1 of the Winchester Slide Action Rifles.  https://www.ebay.com/itm/164883809976

Or you could buy Deerhunter’s for half the ebay price.

Or, for FREE, you could ask Big Larry to tell you about them.  Which he would have done already if you’d put “1906” in your subject.

The book I have listed in the swap meet is the paperback version, but includes both volume 1 and volume 2.  It’s still available–send me a PM if interested.

I don’t do paranoid XXX’s Clarence. Deerhunters book is real cheap. I just bought #1 and #2 hard covers. Not cheap. Big Larry
