I ran across this one recently and was wondering if it was actually made in 1907 or just a little later. I don't know just how many were made that year......

It was manufactured in 1907, however, it turns out that this was not the first year of manufacture. The first few (approximately 200) were manufactured in 1906. The serial numbers for 1907 ran to approximately 9200.

Thanks for the confirmation. I had heard that a very few of these great rifles had been made in late 1906 but that 1907 was the full year of production. I believed that more than 4000 were made that year but was not completely sure.
