:::Apparently Bungie saw fit to put it on the handguard, optic, and the optic mount - why those last two even have a serial number is a mystery, as they are not integral parts of the firearm itself, nor are they regulated as firearms. However, if you ever handle a real firearm that was manufactured after 1968 (I think), you will notice these numbers and letters on the firearm - that is the serial number. They are usually found on the receiver or the frame of the firearm in question. One of my pistols has it on the frame. My AR-15s have them on the left side of the lower receiver, beneath the manufacturer, model, and caliber. I have a revolver that has the serial on the bottom of the grip. Point being, the random numbers and letters are there as a touch of realism. <b>[[User:Smoke.|<span style="color:Gray; font-weight:bold; font-family:Tahoma Small Cap">Smoke</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Smoke.|<span style="color:Gray; font-weight:bold; font-family:Tahoma Small Cap">Sound off!</span>]]</sup></b> 22:59, 27 October 2012 (EDT) | :::Apparently Bungie saw fit to put it on the handguard, optic, and the optic mount - why those last two even have a serial number is a mystery, as they are not integral parts of the firearm itself, nor are they regulated as firearms.

::::Oh, well that makes sense. I guess it's not really that important that we add it to the article's trivia section. --[[User:Xamikaze330|Xamikaze330]] ([[User talk:Xamikaze330|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|contribs]]) 23:06, 27 October 2012 (EDT)Xamikaze330 | |||
