I think that that model 8 was probably owned by Winchester at one time. It makes sense to me that competitors would want to keep abreast of what the competition was doing. I keep databases on some of the Remington slide actions offered and have run across a 141R owned and marked by Winchester. It seems that there was a 14 or 25 also marked but I can't find it in my files at the moment, they consisting of information on around 3500 guns........tom
