Not so. Prototype, pre-production and production all had their own serial number sequence (in the case of the prototypes there really was no sequence as one is numbered 00 and others have no serial number). Never too old to learn I guess and never too proud to admit a mistake.

Hello Ron. Long time since our last msg.
Do you have anything more to add about the borchardt pre-production/prototypes gun? Since our last conversation, did you find another pre production gun? Regards.
