Buzz, it must be exciting to live in your version of reality, a world in which all my $50K+ "Winchester" M-21s are "counterfeited" -- along with those owned by countless other careless buyers.

Regarding Cody letter, you apparently missed my earlier post about Galazan's work on Winchester-made M-21s in their capacity as the Winchester Custom Shop. In 2003 they custom restocked, reblued and opened the chokes on my 1950's era M-21. Those modifications are on record with Cody, included in the letter I obtained in 2004. Not kidding myself about that Buzz. And not kidding you.
