All rifles made by USRAC will bear the Winchester logo, as they were made under license by Winchester. The new stuff being made in Japan also bears the Winchester name, albeit with stampings indicating that they were made in Japan, required by import regulations. Several listings of the 9422 serial numbers by date of manufacture exist on the internet, or you can call Winchester. The phone number for Winchester is 800-333-3288 or 801-876-2711. You will need your model and serial number for them to look up your date of manufacture.
