1917 DWM Question

Alx · 09-14-2012, 01:07 AM

It is not generally regarded as of any increased significance, but one, two, and three-digit serial numbers are more interesting to me, compared to the most prevalent four-digit serial numbered guns. Maybe because they did not put zeros in front, as would a modern scheme do, to maintain a four digit number.

I have a two-digit Luger, 48 in the l block, ( lower case L ), but I have never seen a single-digit serial Luger. Unless my math is taking a senior moment, there would only be 243 of them max per year, per maker. ( 9x27 ) ... Is that so ?
