Hi folks,
I thought there must have been a thread like this before, but couldn't dig one up in 10 minutes of searching.
I'm interested to know which among you have owned firearms that have/had what you consider to be a remarkably low serial number relative to the total number produced. I'd be interested in hearing what the guns were, the approximate serial number, and any other interesting facts or anecdotes you may have to offer about the gun's history.
Some of you may say "Who cares?", but I have a certain fascination with very low numbers on a gun, a fascination extends particularly to older guns with some recognized collector appeal.
Even if you didn't own the gun, but simply saw it for sale or auction, or know someone who has such a piece, please share it with us.
