Hi Kim
I am guessing what you posted above contains the serial number and I am guessing it is 72041?
If you can, take off the fore-end and look at the metal on the underneath and you should see that number by itself. If so one of our members can look up the vital statistics on the gun.
If you join the PGCA, you will get a good value for your investment of $40.
