Nice, but not that big a deal. The serials didn't follow what we would expect to be a sensible format. Single digits were created when a factory re-tooled, they got new receivers, or the line boss decided to start over. I've seen a 0001 91/30 before.

But it's still damned cool.

Well having a low serial weapon is still a talking point. I'm sure it will eventually raise the value of it as a collectible as they become more rare.
