Bill,

Yes, the A&F records list the G&H barrel number as the serial number, but only those guns sold through the A&F store are listed. Ironically, we do not have the sales records for the firearms sold directly through Griffin & Howe before 1976. Early on, both A&F and G&H had their own building, showroom and inventory and the A&F records show guns transferred to and from the G&H inventory. In a very few cases a 'used' rifle with its production serial nummber is shown as transferred to G&H to become G&H rifle number xxx.
