Winchesters are mostly for the name, I think - and there aren't as many of them vs the other manufacturers (except for International Harvester).

Its just the name. Winchester produced the second most M1 of any of the Mfgs.

Springfield
1934 to 1946 made 3,526,922 total war time production of M1s.

Winchester
1941 to 1945 made 513,880 total war time production of M1s.
