Low S/N guns

[Patrick Chadwick]

I have an Argentine M1909 with serial number A0001.

Well I reckon that's going to be the winner. Unless, of course, someone has the number 0001 without the A!

OMG, what a place for a typo! My Argentine M1909 is not serial number A0001, it is A0002. I wish it was number 1! I also have what is probably a salesman's sample FN Herstal Mauser, stamped 93/1907, which is serial number 8 on all parts. My P14 is 3 digit, but sadly while the bolt and receiver match, the rearsight is off by about 500000 digits..........

OH, well that's different then, boltaction. You only have the second Argentine M1909. Common as dirt.

Thanks for the photos. Amazing you found three such low serial numbered rifles!

Funny though to find someone has the previous S/N to my Argentine M1909 as pictured on the starting post . Thanks for the pictures!

Yes, I would love to know who has A0001. I'd also love to find the matching bayonet for my piece--THAT would be cool!

With the kind of luck you have, Ed, you may find it!!

Oh, my!

Head hung in shame.

All I can offer is this Royal North West Mounted Police carbine that showed up recently. LEC Mark I, 1894, serial number 45.

Yeah, I know; there are 44 more before it, but it`s what I have......
