Yes but Bill, he said he wanted a valuation for insurance. Finding out information doesn't equate to a valuation, and an insurer will want an appraisal, which must be a document.

It would be different if the gun could be traced to an extraordinary famous person or event, but the chances of that are slim. To me, it is what we see, and an appraisal deals with that.
