Hi Ed, We respect your brother's right to privacy, but those of us on the forum who routinely share serial numbers are puzzled why anyone would choose to keep them secret. Should your brother decide to disclose the serial of this gun, tell him that there may be a suffix letter associated with it. It will be visible on the front of the frame, below the serial, and will most likely be the letter a. The mark on the rear grip strap, W.W./2798, is a Naval property number, and stands for Werft Willemshaven, the dockyard serving the High Seas Fleet. Regards, Norm
