# on forarm
I received several guns from my fathers estate after he passed. They had his ssn# engraved on them. Seems it was a practice then, at least in the Midwest. This was done to identify the firearms if they were stolen. Perhaps the three digits were the last didgits of the previous owners ssn#. Funny in the 60's-70's, you etched your info on tools, firearms. Now you pay to hide everything?
