See my comment earlier about the utter futility of the fantasy of estimating production numbers. I cannot stress enough about the impossibility of that endeavor.


It is possible to tell you that, of the reported New Model American Eagles, 1,348 are in 7,65mm; and 626 are 9mm. By serial number, there were 44,038 New Model Parabellums produced, in all variations (including interspersed P08 commercial production). It should be obvious why, statistically, it is impossible to make an estimation.
