The guns that need a letter are the ones with an unusual feature that would benefit from the letter. Older guns could be shipped to individuals or police departments or famous folks, like maybe John Dillinger or whoever. I tossed that name in because hero's aren't the only names that could turn up.

This.
I love the history of older guns and sometimes you get lucky. My big winner was a 1947 .44 HE that was one of 50 shipped to the Washington State Patrol.
The rest have been mostly Joe Blows Hardware Store.
It's kind of a Christmas morning feel when that letter comes in. You get to unwrap it (open it) and see what you get.
