Should there be any other former Winchester employees of a nostalgic bent,
there is a privately published, 1996 book entitled "WINCHESTER - The Way It Really Was" by Pauline Muerrle, former Factory Engraver. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...=Google+Search David Merrill "Errol Groff" wrote in message ...

Rumor has it that the production is going to Belgium. However, that might
be a guess since USRAC is owned by the Herstal Group. There has been no official announcement yet. About 200 people will lose their jobs. The Winchester name is still owned by Olin and might stay in the USA Randy "Randy" wrote in message ... Going out of business or just relocating to get rid of the older well paid work force?

That darn link hangs my browser! Don't know why it should. I went to the WTNH site and copy/pasted the link into my message. The link is to the correct site, it just looks like they are either relying on javascript to do something, and there's no time-out so if the thing never happens, the browser locks up. I've found there are some sites that require all the bells/whistles running or they hang things up. Ebay auctions do that often, when I run a bare-bones browser some things seem to take forever to get to go.
