THIS ^^^^^^^^^^The dwgs. are from Winchester. They are from the collection in Cody.
I disagree that they would not care. If they could save money buying standard tooling, they would have. I truly believe it was to secure as much repair and parts business as possible. It allows them to charge a premium for their parts as well.
Winchester and a couple of others were notorious for oddball threads. They wanted people taking their firearms to gunsmiths and those gunsmiths buying replacement screws from the company.
