Win 1885 HiWall action sizes
Did Winchester produce the HiWall action in different sizes or was it a case of one size only?

Just the one as far as I know.
The Low Wall was the smaller action offering.

They came in “thick” and “thin” side wall variants. I believe I’ve read they thinned the sidewalls as metallurgy improved. However, the overall size of the action was not changed, just less metal outside the mortis’.

FISH!!

Heed the words of Winston Smith in Orwell's 1984:

"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right."
