The barrel serial would be visible without disassembly if it were done by an arsenal/depot/refurb, and would be all numbers of the serial (but not the suffix). The number would be right at the flange, on the bottom of the barrel, above the 8,82 land diameter number.

From your PhotoBucket pics, looks like one of the Numrich barrels (which of course would have been sold by other venders as well) which is not a bad thing. I liked mine. Shot good, looked good.
