Does anyone happen to have the production quantities of the model 71 rifles Browning produced a few years back? They made 20 inch carbines and 24 inch rifles, in both Grade #1's and HI Grade versions. If you know how many of each of those 4 rifles were made, I'd appreciate knowing. I looked all over the web, found no statistics.

Blue Book from a few years ago says,
Grade 1 carbine 4000+
High Grade carbine 3000
Grade1 rifle 3000
High Grade rifle 3000

Now, now, I'm pretty sure at least a thousand are still in circulation!
