Hammerli 208 Serial Numbers

The law does not require that the number be any particular length, just that it be composed of letters and numbers. That means that gun serial numbers can include any number of characters. Therefore, any combination of letters and numbers you see stamped into the gunmetal is likely the serial number. Jul 05, 2006.

About Boat Hull Identification Numbers

How to determine whether a boat hull identification number is valid.

A boat hull identification number, which is commonly referred to as a HIN or hull ID, serves the same basic purpose as a vehicle serial number. It not only provides a unique vessel identifier, but facilitates tracking of manufacturer defects for recall purposes. The importance of showing this correctly on all registration and title documents can not be overstated. Enforcement officials do not take kindly to mismatched and incorrect HIN numbers when it comes to a boarding or inspection. There are also numerous other issues surrounding boat identification numbers of which any interested party should be keenly aware.
On November 1, 1972 the federal government enacted regulations which require a standardized hull number format on any boat that is manufactured for domestic consumption. The number must be 12 characters long and arranged in such a way that it shows the manufacturer's code, a production number, and the production date or model year. HINs may also contain optional prefixes and suffixes which are separated from the underlying number by dashes. This is supplemental data which may include the country where built or additional specifications. These are not considered as part of the actual hull ID number.
The above requirements pertain to hull identification numbers that have been assigned by registered manufacturers. There are however circumstances where each state and the U.S. Coast Guard will assign hull numbers directly to an applicant. This includes home built vessels, those manufactured prior to November 1, 1972, and boats which have been brought in from foreign countries which do not subscribe to our HIN standards. State issued hull numbers will begin with their standard registration prefix followed by the letter 'Z'. Coast Guard issued hull identification numbers are prefixed by 'USZ'.
Hull identification numbers are typically located on the upper right hand part of the transom or aft starboard side in the case of double ended vessels. On fiberglass boats, they are molded right into the hull itself by the manufacturer. State or Coast Guard assigned numbers may be affixed by a decal or plate. Beginning with August 1, 1984, manufacturers were also required to affix a hidden identification number to some unexposed location on the interior of a boat. Most surveyors and law enforcement officials will know where to look on specific models.
One of the most critical issues in dealing with hull identification numbers is knowing how to recognize a HIN which has been changed, altered, or obliterated. Any evidence of tampering whatsoever in this regard should raise an immediate red flag and warrant further investigation. Interested parties should also never rely on registration or title documents without implementing an actual inspection to make sure the HIN on these documents matches that which is actually affixed to the vessel. Another important safeguard is to simply verify that a hull number is structured properly to coincide with the vessel's year and model. The free hull number check resource shown above is designed for that purpose.

Americans have been in numerous wars over the decades but it was not until February 12, 1918, that there was the introduction of US Army serial numbers (SNs). Before that date the main method of identification of soldiers was by the ‘roster rolls' or ‘muster rolls', the listing of soldiers during a specific time period.

The first service numbers to be issued in February 1918 were only to Army enlisted personnel. Other military branches (Navy, Marines) were still small enough not needing serial numbers. The first Army personnel issued the first number was Master Sergeant Arthur Crean. Imagine that was your ancestor and you have just learned that bit of information. After WW I in 1920, the Army introduced the first 'service number prefix' which was intended to be a letter placed in front of the service number to provide additional information about the veteran. Also in 1920 was when Army officers received serial numbers, with the letter 'O', the first being issued to General John J. Pershing.

By 1942 those prefix letters were discontinued, just numbers used. New sets of numbers were used, mostly for those drafted during WW II. Other changes would come about over the next few years but by July 1, 1969, service numbers were declared discontinued. Instead, military personnel were identified by their social security number.

See below the first couple of numbers / letters and what they referred to identification of a soldier. These numbers were also placed on the ‘dog tags' – metal tags worn by all soldiers. Another good source for additional information is this link on Army serial numbers.

Some prefixes were used in World War I. However, the following system began shortly before World War II.

The first character gives us a lot of information.

• 1 = Enlisted in the Army (in other words, volunteered rather than drafted)
• 2 = Federally recognized National Guard
• 3 = Drafted
• 4 = Drafted
• O (that's the letter O, not a zero) = Male commissioned officers
• W = Male Warrant officers
• T = Flight officers (Army Air Force)
• L = Commissioned officers of the Women's Army Corps (WAC)
• V = WAC Warrant officers
• A = WAC enlisted women
• R = Hospital dietitians
• M = Physical therapy aides

When you have an 8-digit serial number, the second number shows the Service Command. This narrows down where the person enlisted or was drafted. If you have a serial number for a member of the WAC, look at the number after the letter prefix. Lungo 1 6 0 8.
