Have you ever had a gun with a very cool serial number?

Aero M5 lower "4 July XXXX"my birth year

I completed paramedic training a couple of hundred numbers too early for cert # 5150. My Dept FF badge number was 007. I guess I need to get a Walther PPK too. I have bought a few Glocks in pairs with the veterans blue label program and was happy to get sequential serial numbers a few times.

In 1981 I bought a two-tone Jennings pistol with the serial number 8675309.

I had five guns that all had the same serial number. The only difference was the two letter prefix.

The number was 02232.

Delta Elite DE
Delta Goldcup DG
Delta Stainless DS
Double Eagle 45 DA
Double Eagle 10mm (I can't remember, I only owned it for about a month)

I wish I still had that set.

Cute idea, but no - in 1981, the serial number would have been no more than 6 digits and would have begun with a 5.

Have a pistol in .40S&W with the serial number 4040.
A uniquely nefarious looking pistol with serial number 0187.
A single-shot lower meant for a .50BMG upper with A5150.
A Colt with a serial number matching the patent date expressed on the slide.

A Revolver with my initials, in order. in the serial number, followed by the year I graduated highschool. Was buying the gun anyway, and that was just a lucky byproduct.

I called John Ross back in the day. He had a PC run of 500s run to his specs. 5 inch, no brake. I asked him to check the safe for one with my birthdate as the serial number.

He did and signed the box as well.



I've also got a G34 with DUD prefix... anything but.

My S&W 340PD serial number starts with DAY. For daytime use only?

I got a group buy of custom engraved Kimber 1911’s during a deployment, around 34 guns if I remember correctly. We were I Company, 185th Aviation Regiment.

The Serial numbers are ICO185-1 thru -34 or whatever it was. During the process of working out the purchase I was very surprised to find that Kimber would do a run of custom serial numbers like that. Very nice guns with engraving on both sides and the grips as well, and Kimber was by far the most supportive company I worked with while trying to make this happen.

I have an HK that has my initials as the date code on the slide. Totally random occurance.

not as cool as some of yours, but I have a British Enfield, and a German Mauser from WW1, both with 4 digit serials - the first and third numbers are the same, the other two are just swapped. Not the same as a "match", but out of millions of rifles, from different countries over a century ago, just a little bit neat.
