Found an Estate sale and was able to pick up a couple of Winchester model 53’s.  One was in the rare 44 caliber and one was a 25-20 takedown.  I know there was a limited number of 53’s produced,  but of them what percentage of them were 44-40’s and what percentage were takedown configuration?  These are in above average condition with one having replacement sights which I plan on correcting.  Any help…….Bert🥴…anyone…

What is the serial number on each rifle?

The attached picture is a snapshot of the current survey totals.
