    Default I wonder how many where made?

    August 10,1909 it was authorized to start cutting sight line in the handguard.
    Jan. 1 1910 they started adding clips to handguards.
    So that's about 4 and 1/2 months worth of production..
    Wouldn't that make that model a rare one to find....?
    My guess is only about 14,000 made, how many still around?
    What you think.....???

    If this is what you meant ... a non-sighting groove handguard on my original 230,477:
