I asked some days ago, my friend PWCOSOL, about the question for this model, " How many made ! :
This information is not known to me. I think the first contract for Lancay was for around 42,000 M9s and awarded in two parts. It seems logical they may have suggested/requested the fuller be deleted around the time the first part of the contract was completed. Either way, this change might only have been noted in Lancay's internal record keeping when the change actually took effect. I think that might suggest the number could be around 20,000 +/- but that is only conjecture...
