MAYBE if you worked for the ATF and it hasn't passed through to private hands with a wide speriod in between...

I say N instead of a number, in my state it's 10 (Illinois)

FFL->FFL, FFL->Private, also recorded/reported (phone call with details/approval). Private->Private recorded and mostly not reported back and they have a shelf life of N years and then often destroyed (its like gun owner religion) . There has been recent "if sold at gunshow laws" that require a seller to call if physically at the GUNSHOW. They will refuse to record the sale if you are not PHYSICALLY at the gunshow. You can do the math on that one.

So if I gun is used in a crime. Manufacture to FFL, FFL-FFL/Person tracked, if that person sold the gun less the N years ago he SHOULD have a record of who he sold it to, if over N years, it could have been sold and recorded a many times but who knows who's doing it?

What year Noblet bass clarinet serial?

To determine the year of a Noblet bass clarinet, you typically need to reference the serial number found on the instrument. Noblet used a specific serial number system, and you can often find charts or resources online that correlate these numbers with production years. If you provide the serial number, I can help you find the corresponding year or suggest where to look for this information.


How do you find out the age of an old 32 revolver?

First you have to determine the make and model. Go to the library stacks and find The Standard Catalog of Firearms. Look through it and all the other books on that shelf until you find its picture. These books will tell you the range of dates this model was manufactured. If the gun has a serial number, you may find a listing that shows the range of serial numbers for each year. Or maybe not. Many old guns did not have serial numbers, some were numbered but the same numbers used several times, and some manufacturers' lists have gone to the recycle bin long ago.
