Ed,
Both these serial numbers fall within the 6100-7100 serial number range which most use as the range of the Test Eagles. Springfield Research Service digs through the records of the National Archives for serial numbers of U.S. Military small arms. Most records found are merely a snapshot in time, most often showing a record of the serial number showing up at some Army base or other such facility on a certain date. Very few show where the weapon was first issued, and as in the case of Test Eagle serial number 6761 could have merely been a copy of the paperwork transferring the pistol to that particular Cavalry troop.
