EAL Type Longbranch Experts Weigh In

[Dogfish858]

No I'm not.

Look: I said "Either this is 02, EAL, OR it's #2 ever made at Longbranch -- highly unlikely -- or it's a forgery, which would have been pointless.

The 2 stamp precisely, exactly, without deviance or trace of slant, slander, or cant, is exactly the same as another two-digit EAL serial number I have a photo of -- a rifle that isn't supposed to exist but does.

Nobody can prove that I am wrong, they only say that I am wrong. I have offered proof repeatedly, and the only reason I don't show the photo is by request of the lender. Nobody has been able to refute me, and the evidence used to refute me I can prove to be usually correct, but sometimes wrong, and in the context of early series rifles, often wrong.

Honestly, by all of your logic, if what I have is not EAL, then it is Longbranch (which is isn't, because Longbranch started with EX) or a forgery, and it's highly unlikely to be either of those.
