Sequence is same as a social security number. When Uncle Sam and I established a mutal busisness agreement for a three year time period in 1969 I was presented with an identification bar code (it was and still is impressed permanently in my brain) of XXXXXXXXX. I can't remember my anniversary (30 years), my kids birthdays, my parents birthdays, ect, but sneak up behind me and scream "REPORT, PRIVATE!" and out will come "GRADY, PRIVATE, RA , XXXXXXXXX". Also in the 60-70ish period there was a movement to put a SN on all items of value, police Depts had etching/engraving tools available for this purpose. There are many guns with a SS# forever etched in their frames. At least it didn't happen to this one. Refrrence the stamped, is this an ink or impressed into the wood deal? Congratulations on the purchase.
