Siamese Artillery

Norm, I have 3519v with a matching mag marked with "+" and E/63. Like yours, my stock is numbered on the wood but is a mismatch, 3501. All parts on my pistol match with the exception of the rear sight which is numbered 89, witness mark is also a hair off. My Siamese has no rust or pitting but an overall "jungle"appearance sort of a dull worn look high lighted by the usual silver metal exposure at the muzzel and on the side plate The proof appears to be a horizontal "U" with two crowns above it...one above the other.

From what I've read and heard, original production was limited to one hundred LP08s and Odin imported fewer than seventy-five. That being the case, I think they are one of the most undervalued artilleries around. I bought mine from Sarco with the stock about five years ago for $1200.
