There were only (12) of them made that will letter (serial range 1 – 353999). Thus far, I have surveyed (4) with a serial number > 353999. I suspect that at least a few dozen more were made. What is the serial number on the one you found?

The partial serial number does me no good.  Can you provide the complete serial number?

Providing the serial numbers on a firearm is not like giving out your SS number or drivers license number, and as it applies to old Winchesters, the serial number can help research the gun. 

Which caliber is it? 

Per the Winchester serialization records, it was manufactured in September, 1927.  It is now the 5th recorded 18-inch Trapper SRC in the non-letterable range.

Thanks for the information!
