The Winchester Company was organized in 1931 in Connecticut following the bankruptcy and reorganization of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company, when its assets were acquired by the Western Cartridge Company under the control of industrialist Franklin W. Olin. The new corporate structure preserved the famous Winchester name while placing it within the expanding Olin-controlled firearms and ammunition enterprise, which included both civilian sporting goods and major U.S. military production. During the 1930s and throughout World War II, The Winchester Company played a significant role in American arms manufacturing, supplying rifles, ammunition, and related products for domestic and wartime use. The company issued stock during this reorganization period and functioned as a publicly held but closely controlled corporation, with shares available to investors while strategic control remained with the Olin interests. In 1944, The Winchester Company was absorbed into Olin Industries, ending its independent corporate existence while the Winchester brand itself continued as one of the most recognized names in American industrial and firearms history. ����������������������������� Est. $200-300 Delaware 401 401 DE.
