  According to Bruce Canfield's "Complete Guide to the M1 Garand and the M1 Carbine", mandatory for collectors, production of Winchesters began at SN 1,000,000; according to Mr Canfield, spring tube receivers were being phased out at around SN 1,125,000.  I don't think that you can get more precise than that.

  Thanks for the info, so around 125,000 would be a good guess.
