We have seen how various manufacturers started their serial number sequences at far above no.1, maybe to give the appearance of a bigger production run for marketing purposes?
So the Walther LP53 started at 1040, the Feinwerkbau model 150 started at 0520, the FWB65 at 1040...
OK, so these are all postwar German airguns and there is no evidence of the practice being used before the war, or in England (or is there?).
My question is: could the BSA Milpats have started higher than no.1, perhaps at 100 or so? Has anyone seen one with a lower number?
The reason I ask is that looking at the serial numbers
here, there isn't one below 100.
