Speaking of serial no's, what do you guys think the deal is with the serial number on this Eastie produced slide?

I've always assumed that the importer put it there; possibly because there were two pistols in the import shipment with the same serial number.

I agree that the -A looks a bit weird.

Does the frame serial number have a similar marking, or does it have the classic cursive a.?

Here is a similar one, on a first issue P08 that went 'VoPo'.
