Z3,
When I bought the firing pin, I wanted number 004 because that has always been my lucky number.
By the time I found out he had more than firing pin, he had already set me up with S/N 003.

I know of a fellow who rarely visits this board and I'm sure he would not post the numbers of his guns here and will probably not see this thread but I can tell you that he owns 10 Colt Thompsons, three of them have serial numbers under 100, and two of them are consecutive numbered. So he may be the winner in this contest!

Considering the records of the where abouts of the first 100 Colt TSMG's are very well documented, this hoarder's identity is not a well kept secret. Warren Kreiser seems to be the only known owner of three (3) Colt TSMG's with serial numbers below 100 and with consecutive #95 and #96.

I just remembered, #6 (Model of 1919) is in the Rock Island Armory Museum. Maybe they get the prize...

I own Savage M1 214x. Oddly it has the same serial number in two places on the lower receiver- one in the "usual" spot where the pistol grip meets the trigger guard, and one hidden underneath the rear stock (where the 1928 models with removable stocks were marked).
