I wonder how many where made?

[rebound]

August 10,1909 it was authorized to start cutting sight line in the handguard.
Jan. 1 1910 they started adding clips to handguards.
So that's about 4 and 1/2 months worth of production..
Wouldn't that make that model a rare one to find....?
My guess is only about 14,000 made, how many still around?
What you think.....???
