I have a Hotchkiss Rifle serial number 18072 which was shipped from the Winchester Factory July of 1882 with nine other (I assume) rifles with bayonets. I believe these guns to be sample model rifles sent to Springfield Armory for consideration. The other serial numbers are; 17643, 17647, 17648, 17649, 17652, 17659, 17666, 17851, & 18059. If you have one of these rifles please contact me, as I would like to compare yours to mine. Thanks in advance for your help.
Jim
