Default Re: Recovery of Motor #'s

Hi Jim,

Stamping does shock the metal around the stamped area. Law enforcement uses some kind of a dye solution and some kind of lamp (ultra violet maybe) on guns that have had the serial number filed off. I doubt it leaves the numbers perminatly visible though.
You might contact Jerry MacNeish, he had been sold some restamped distributors and found a way to verify the orig stamping...
