Typo...?

Hi Tom,

I know the "typo" was not yours...think John S. set up the photo gallery for your pistol.

I am a bit confused on the serial number of # 130...

In Still's IL book on page 159, he lists the 1906 running in batches from # 69-9912, # 7a-9945a, and # 2b-998b; with a note that 8,000 were produced in 1906 and the remainder in 1908-1914.

With your pistol at # 130 and "altered", does this mean the 1906 1st. Issue Un-altered pistols ran for only a hundred pistols or so...or was yours altered a bit later...?

Any guess as to how many 1st. Issue Unaltered's remained so...?

Thanks for your help...

Regards,

Pete... <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />
