LIke everything else, I wonder how many get destroyed each year over the years, the gun buffed so bad, nothing remains, or a fire or total water damage...
But it is amazing that so many would be "gone" and like Johnnny said, when you can trace a gun back 7 years, that is interesting. I would love to start a serial number registry and see how many we could gather. Are there lists now out there? I know a couple of collectors have gathered lists over time?
Then how many are sitting in a drawer and has this nice american eagle on it.
I wonder how many american eagles are on the forum that aren't in those registered numbers? One, two maybe, more?
