Any real reasons ??? Other than saying you have it ?

I could see it in a 1 of 100 collector grade gun, or something like that ... especially if it was 1 and 2.

In a run of the mill every day production gun ?? It's just a number on the side of a gun.

I was just wondering what the draw was, Ale. Are you saying that you would enjoy shooting your guns MORE if the numbers stamped on the side are consecutive ?

My guns are for shooting .... I see very little reason to even worry about what the serial numbers are, which is why I asked.

Your non-answer above didn't really help ... kinda like saying if you don't know ... you wouldn't understand. When someone says that to me, it means they have no answer.

I couldn't care less what somebody's gun's serial numbers are ... I just wondered why some think it's 'very cool'.

Do people think it makes them worth more ??

"Your non-answer above didn't really help ... kinda like saying if you don't know ... you wouldn't understand. When someone says that to me, it means they have no answer."

And your wise-guy remark means you reaslly dont care about an answer, you're just stirring the pot.

Personal preferences are just that, personal preferences. They do not require your approval to be valid, and none of us has to justify his preferences to you.

Live with it. (Thanks, Wall!)

MY wise-guy responses ?? I asked a simple question.

Perhaps you should read the replies to my inquiry (including your own) for wise-guy responses ....
