Check prior trace records and see if the serial number is already there. If so, pull the gun information and return it to the requesting agency. Trace complete. If the gun is not found, begin the process of tracing. First, identify the make and model of the firearm and call the manufacturer with the serial number. The safest way to search for the history of a gun is to collect the serial number from the owner's manual or body of the gun and then ask a local official, such as a gun shop or law enforcement department, for its history. Additionally, websites such as hotgunz.com have public databases of stolen registered weapons.

In the United States there is no gun registration on the Federallevel and no registration of any kind in most states. There is noway to trace ownership through just a serial number.

There may be manufacturer's records that will indicate the date(or at least the year) of manufacture. Springfield Research Centerhas searched records in the National Archives and identified manyrecords of guns that were issued to, inventoried by, or disposed ofby, various military units, and the results of their research areavailable for a fee. Cody Museum in Wyoming has records of mostWinchester rifles which usually only indicates the datesmanufactured and shipped and the shipping destination, usually awholesaler but occasionally a special order from a famousindividual. These records will also tell the original configurationif it was different than standard. These Winchester letters arevery expensive. There is a similar service for Colt firearms andSmith and Wesson. Some similar information is available for olderStevens firearms from a private historian who owns the factoryrecords. Keep in mind, this will only get you the originalowner.

In countries that have registration it may be possible to traceownership since the registration was instituted, but thisinformation may be limited to law enforcement.
