How low do the ser#s go?   This one is listed as SER# 54.   Maybe a 2002?

I won't say a just stole it.   But, I got it for opening bid.

Pics are dark and low resolution.

I have a couple low # ones, I'll check. Sometimes the serial # doesn't correlate to the build date. Hopefully the paperwork and test target are still with itlaugh

They all start with YG then a 5 digit sequence #. I have 545, 255, 319. 545 was test target two days before 319 12/10/2002 for 454 and 12/12/2002 for 319.         255 was 10/9/2002. I also have 132 but it didn't have it's test target with it when I bought it. I have many others but they are not of the original YG numbers.

Not sure what the problem is with uploading pics?????20261003_085302.jpgImage Enlarger

I Bid, Won, and Purchased, and was Invoiced a DW Patriot SER# 54

They were going to send me serial number C5146CZ  .

I requested cancellation of the sale and full refund.

I am ready to have ATF audit their record keeping.

That one was a 2005 model, probably a little better build wise as they were using better small parts then, EB, Grieder..... You went from an early model to one of the last. Probably would have still been a good buy for a Patriot. They are some of my favorites in the collection.
