I know they aren't technically 'antiques' due to our moronic legislative definitions but as far as I'm concernrd anything over 100 years old should qualify! I happened to come across another .351 Winnie and even though I already have one and making ammunition is a royal PITA I just HAD to get it. Something about these heavy little carbines just 'does it' for me. Anyway, after giving it the once over I looked at the serial number. Hmmm looks to be kind of near the serial on my other 1907 so off we go to get the other one. On closer examination I got a nice surprise.....the serials were only 6 guns off! I had XX002 and XX008!!! I was initially going to keep the better of the two and sell the other but not a chance now. I find it too cool that these two rifles rolled off the line probably in the same hour and then went their separate ways until I reunited them. If I ever do sell them I'll try to do it as a pair. Just thought I'd share.
