Nope. Many a SW enthusiast has been down this road, trying to track down their possibly mythical records. Myself included. None found to my knowledge. Others may have more information on this quest.

Me, too ! They were S&W's #1 distributor in the early days.

Many a fantastic or seemingly special order revolver that comes letters as being shipped to Robinson dies on the vine, right there.

There is a better chance of finding the treasure on Oak Island than the records of MWR returning from ashes.
