What's the purpose?

While browsing the various threads I keep running into requests for matching serial number parts. Not the whole number, with suffix, but just the last 2 digits, like on firing pins, extractors, etc. I figure, if the poster is successful, they have a weapon with all matching numbers, but they, and successive owners, never know if it's authentic or fabricated. For any given year there may be many s/n ending in 40 for each suffix for instance.
