Well congratulations! That is obviously a great addition to any collection.
I emailed the seller too, but didn’t get a response either!
Had he provided ANYTHING, I would have bought it.
If you don’t mind, I’d love to know what details you find on it in the future.

Great pickup! I just saw that the Canadian Military is going to scrap their Browning HiPower 9mm pistols and there are several thousand of them. You got an escapee from the Great White North so it is a banner day.

Sorry, If you sent me an email in the last several days & I didn't comply. My computer was complete wiped out. Just back from NRA and it is partial up again. I got these numbers from Munnell many years ago.

Jeff Munnell did an article on these in the 1987 RCA Winter Journal (Vol. 11, No. 4) that included the 62 serial numbers that Don shared. His research indicates that there were 71 T-678s that were shipped between June 1961 to September 1968 to the R.C.M.P. or an agent. It also has a picture of S/N 303105.
