Olin Kodensha was Winchester's factory, opened about 1976, to make the 101.

edit: Google says Olin Kodensha opened in the early 1960s, but the 101 began about 1976. If memory serves, the Super-X was briefly made in New Haven, before it too went to Japan. My dad had one of the New Haven guns, but I sold it, for better or worse, because I hated all the click clack, especailly being a southpaw.
