I have only seen a few "Sequoia numbers" over 300. Nothing more than that. So I think that the production number of 500 (or 1000!) is largely fictional. I don't know why the Mannlicher Collectors Assoc. (based in Oregon) seems so dead in the water these days, but I think they should have this information buried somewhere in a back issue of their journal. I was a member for a few years back in the 1980's and dimly remember reading about the the Sequoia, including something about the reason for the (rosewood?)schnable forend (with brass? pressure point) on some of the rifles. Unfortunately, it was too long ago for me to accurately remember anything specific.

Like I've said before...where is the Mannlicher-Schoenauer book? For such a desirable, even mythical firearm, this lack of any reliable centralized historical information is very puzzling.
