VERY VERY nice!
I only have one pair of consecutive guns, and only a few much later produced matching numbers (subscription) guns.

Okay, since we all love pictures. Serial numbers on these do NOT match BUT both have an "S". Both "letter" as such too.

Both blued, both 4 inch, both 357 magnum, both low back grip frame, both are Security Six, but one FIXED sites and one ADJUSTABLE sites.

I found one of them because a member here who was on vacation in another state saw it in a gun store and thought of me. A different member here put the other one on Gun Broker.

I have a set of Ruger 1911's with consecutive numbers I bought for my boys. 1 has a double struck logo. I was sort of upset about it at the time.

Turns out my youngest is a budding coin collector. He asked me one day if I had ever heard of a double struck coin? He thinks the double struck SR1911 is something really special.

Here is a thread I started about it at the time. 10 years ago! Wow! Time flies.
