Alright I need my old time WACA members to tell me about these gun racks. I acquired 75 from a woman in Connecticut and all she knew was her father had them for years. Anyone know if they are legit and if so when WACA had them made? Were they offered to members, made for a project? Appreciate any feedback! Thanks

I can’t answer your questions but I suspect they were a popular item. Well made, please let me know if you can’t use them all.

I would be interested in one if you don’t have need for all 75.

I wonder if these were WACA items? No matter, I’m interested.

That is what I’m wondering Chuck? One would assume with the Winchester Arms Collectors Association being listed on them, they were an approved piece but it doesn’t seem anyone here recalls them being offered. From the interest, it would also seem if WACA actually offered these someone here would have bought one and thus recall when they were offered. I guess I will call the WACA office and see if they can point me in the right direction and report back. Thanks guys!

Bill; You could put My name on a couple. I don’t recall ever seeing these, but they are cool and would be nice to display a couple of W.A.C.A. (commemoratives). Harry

I have my doubts that Heather will find any information about them, and then she will in turn ask me. I can definitively state that they were not offered during the past 25-years. A deep dive through the WACA Collector magazines in the years 1980 – 2000 might be illuminating.

So far, we don’t even know if the OP has any intention of selling them. But if he does, I would be glad to buy two.

I noticed these when Buck first posted them a few days ago, and had a flash in my old rusty memory, as they look familiar to me but that’s as far as I got in my thinking. For some reason Dave Bichrest, came into my mind,( the M-54 Collector and book Author who actually signed me up as a member years ago), but he was from Texas and that didn’t make any sense to me.
They do look nice with the ammo shelf on them.

Hey Don,
The daughter is in Milton, Ct but the phone # shows New Haven, Ct so perhaps a suburb? I don’t know Dads name but I just left the daughter a message asking for it and will post it once I get it. He was a member according to her. He passed almost 2 years ago I think and she said they sold all his Winchesters at Rock Island last year including a 1 of 1000 which of course she said was his pride and joy! Appreciate everyones help!
