Greetings all...
Does anyone have a reference or know what the serial number range was for the 61 Argentine BS Aires Police contract? I read there were appx 8000 guns made for that contract but was wondering if there was a serial number range anyone has information about? Thank you.

Not an expert on this contract, but I have seen 61 Buenos Aires Police Hi Powers with serial numbers in the hundreds, starting with 00XXX. The highest number I recall seeing was in the high sixes, 06XXX. I would think there are higher numbers out there. I too have heard there were about 8000 in the contract. Vanderlinden's book just mentions there were "thousands" in the contract without an exact number, and he notes the serial number starting with 0 was a post war number. Perhaps another member has more information on the contract and the serial numbers.
