editSig P210
editWhere/how can I find out more about the Sig P210 pistols with serial numbers start with P. Is it possible to trackl/trace who a specifically serial numbered gun was originally given to?Ace1654 (talk) 01:28, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
- The manufacturer records the serial number of all distributions of guns to dealers, and then all licensed dealers have to record the numbers of all sales. From that point, depending on state law, there may be additional tracking. However, unless you have a court order, I don't think that information is public. Nor would they tell you. There are some exceptions for older guns. For example, some manufacturers provide letters tracing the origins of older guns for collectors. I doubt that Sig Sauer does this for newer guns though.
- The 210 is somewhat a collector's item though, and it may be that you could find information from collector's books. For example, the proof marks on the gun can tell you the manufacture date... if I understand the forum I found correctly the letters correspond to a number, A=0 B=1, etc. so JJ is 1988. You should check those forums. Just google for "sig p210 serial". Shadowjams (talk) 03:21, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
