Just curious  is there a plausible explanation as to why the sn on this gun looks scrubbed and restamped? The description is one of the highest I have ever seen.

It does look like a rough file was used

Interesting find!!  I wonder if it will even sell for the opening bid of $5500.  Serial number was definitely altered for some reason, and that is the highest serial number I’ve seen.   Brian use to have the the highest serial number noted.
