The only records that would exist is what hard ware store it was first shipped to.
No, but the History Detectives could have fun with it!

More seriously, we have a rifle residing in the desert long enough for dry rot to almost completely destroy the wood in the stock but a complete serial number.

Getting a handle on the last date and location the serial number was recorded gives a place to start doing a little research on newspaper coverage of events that might shed more light on the rifle's history.
