Yeah, I doubt they will have a number produced. Mine just says something like a Lew Horton Distribution exclusive but mentions nothing on the number of guns produced when I know there is only around 500 or so produced. Here is a copy of mine....

I just got an email back from Earl Minot at Lew Horton (that was really fast) and he is typing me up a personalized letter for my 27-8 and said he will send it in the mail. Thats pretty cool. His email read "Your model 27 is one of ours! Please provide your mailing address so I can personalize a letter documenting your Lew Horton Special Edition."
I figure it's something cool to have.
