Here is a second go round. I have neither a Brophy or Mallory book, but I do have a Poyer book. Some numbers agree, some don't. The numbers I used came off the Chief of Ordnance reports where possible. Others came off Congressional reports regarding "Expenditures at the Springfield Armory". Not all could be found of the latter. Really could use the one from 1901 where the rifles and carbines are not broken out in the Ordnance Report. These expenditure reports, when found, list all guns, parts, repairs, and alterations performed during the fiscal year. Even includes every pin and screw made for the year, quite detailed.
Regarding the .22cal gallery model of 1898 guns, besides the 341 built in fiscal year 1907 there were also 124 barrel/receiver combinations built. Another 37 receivers for the model of 1898 gallery guns were fabricated in 1908. (These numbers came off the expenditure reports.)
I don't claim any of these numbers are accurate, just wanted to see if anything sensible could be determined off the reports mentioned and how they compared to other published numbers.
Next I will be getting the count of 1892's altered/converted to 1896 from the expenditure reports. Then my research will be pretty much over, giving everybody else a break from all my posts of late.  :D
