Last fall I picked up a Colt New Service in a trade deal. When I went to register it-here in MI all handguns are registered-it popped up as stolen back in the early 90's in Detroit. I got it out of WV from a guy I had dealt with before. He got it from Cabela's. The sherrif's dept. was cool. The clerk called me direct and said "Rich, don't trade it yet(they know me pretty well!). Let me check on this for you".
Turns out Colt used the same ser. #'s on TWENTY SEVEN different firearms. This is a known fact to LEO's apparently.
Maybe the OP can use that to explain K98 ser.#'s to the cops.
