Serial Numbers
Here are a few Interarms serial numbers for those that keep up with such things.

Steve,
Good effort. In order to narrow down the transition between models it is advisable to divide the types into 3 categories, instead of 2: Category one: 29/70 model, Swiss lay-out. Category two: 06/72 model = 29/70 - 06/73 transitional model with 08-style grip and Swiss style small parts (takedown lever, trigger, safety and sideplate). Category three: 06/73 model, 08 style. I almost forgot: Pistols for the US market usually only have the FBM proof without proof date code. If a pistol was proofed in Germany (Ulm), there will be a 2-digit or 2-letter year code. It is also interesting to record that 2-digit year code. |
Vlim,
I'll add that category to the spreadsheet. There was only one on the list that had transitional features. I also have these categorized by barrel length. Do you know if anyone is trying to make heads or tails out of the production of these pistols? SteveM |
Steve,
I have been collecting the serial number since years now. As Gerben already underlined, it is interesting the association serial number - Ulm proofing year. The pistol in USA with the German proof are quite rare and you can usually find them at the end of production. I will update the data base with your interesting find. Cheers, Mauro |
Steve,
Do you remember which one was the transitional pistol? |
Vlim,
It was 11.011654. 06/73 model with a swiss style sideplate. All other features were of of the 06/73 series. |
