    Hello Bill,

    The U.S. Repeating Arms Company never released their serialization tables for the firearms they produced (1981 - 2006). I believe that you can still call their 1-800 line and get information on an individual firearm though.

    Thanks Bert. USRA still doesn't seem to be releasing much. "Individual firearm" seems to be the operative phrase. I called them about a year ago and they required a serial number to tell me anything. I explained that the gun had been stolen but not the bolt, so I have the last four digits and I know it starts with "G" and just needed to fill in the rest. They said, "Sorry Sir".

    They didn't make that many of these. I'm thinking anyone who owns one could tell me the first three numbers of the series. I have a mate to it in .223 #G210xxxx but I think it was a different production run.

    That is typical of them[V]. We (the gun collecting community) can only hope that one day soon, they will stop being so secretive with the production information... they have been out of business for two full years now.
