I'm a bit confused (not hard to do), someone had a 1913 pistol with serial number 4012 b. Then someone said that the suffix letter was added after the first 10,000 units were made. So that doesn't match. Apparently the next production year was 1916 when the top strap number changed or does it change when a feature is changed/added? The pistol I've shown was made in 1913 towards the beginning of the manufacturing series?
