No, nobody has seen serial number 10.000 that I know of. We know who it went to, just not where it's been in the last 118 years. Hopefully it's not been destroyed.

The tall musket is the 1892 Savage rifle, the short musket is an 1895-1899 transition musket that is thought to be chambered in 30-40 Krag, then the 1893 Savage rifle, then an 1895, then a Stevens single shot.

Great displays at Savage and mostly in chronological order, but a few of their rifles are waaaay out of order. They have a Montreal Home Guard musket in the 1930's display case listed as a prototype military rifle, they have an EG with Stith in the 1970's case(?), etc. Very nice folks at the factory, unfortunately I didn't get to meet Effie. And not one complained despite me being the way snapping pictures until my camera battery died. grin

Another picture I snapped in Maine..
