Range from first known sn#(1000) to the highest so far(1638) has not changed. However, new sn#'s are being added to this range as they come up. Close to 700 rifles looks like the total number imported.

Looks like 1436 just sold on gunbroker for almost $1500.....

I suppose there is some kind of statistical function that could give us within a certain confidence what the total numbers of rifles would be given the data distribution. But since I stink at stats, I'll leave this one alone.

k=83

661*(1+1/83)-1

This yields a N of 668

with 83 samples over this range the total of LESS then 700 is very confident (around 675 would be more likely then 700 would be)

You mean like what he said above....only I think there are 94 rifles listed now and the highest serial number is 663....thus giving us a total of 669 rifles based on all available data.

I have an 18 in. carbine model SAR4800 with serial number SR1590 that I will be selling when the time is right.

There are some images posted somewhere of how to find and remove the pin to remove the hider. Not sure where . . . . I'll look when I get a chance.
