Your question is rather vague- however- by chance did you see an internet question where someone asked about a JC Higgins rifle or shotgun- that had YOUR serial number? Unfortunately, there is a simple answer. That is NOT a serial number, but a Sears model number. Prior to 1968, serial numbers were not required by law on rifles and shotguns. Sears marked their guns with a model number- such as 583.134. Thousands of people have taken that to be a serial number. If this is what happened- sorry. If this did not answer, please contact me through my answers.com message board.

When a stolen firearm is entered into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) it remains on that records until it is recovered, and removed from the database.Added: The above response is correct BUT - it does not answer the original question. A stolen firearm will be entered into NCIC IF the complainant is able to supply the firearm's serial number.
