Here are some pics of my ole Model 1907 351 Cal Winchester Self Loader. It was made in 1926. I hope to find a Lyman/Ideal 350 series mold for it one of these days.
Thanks to some members of this forum, I now have a few jacketed along with some lead boolits and some 357 MAXIMUM cases to be formed. With in the next couple weeks, I plan to fire it for the first time. Once everything comes together.
A Live Center for the Lathe will complete and enable me to finally start making food for this little rifle. Although being short in length it makes up for it as it weights around 8 lbs. The over all lenght is only 36.5 inches.
The second picture down from the top left side in the Collage shows the only battle scare or slight blemish in the fore stock or rear stock for that matter. My guess that is from where is was stored and locked down in a police rack.
My reading and research indicates that this was one of the type of rifles that was used in bringing down Bonnie & Clyde. They were also used in the Penal Systems and predecessor to the mini-14'.
All said, the history on these rifles is very interesting to say the least. Now, if this one could only talk.
