I don't get it. The ATF doesn't specify WHERE the serial number has to be placed by the manufacturer do they? Since the serial number in the yoke cut is the same number and it is factory stamped on a non-removable part of the gun frame (unlike a cylinder or a yoke or a barrel), even if the one on the butt were completely obliterated, there would still be an unmodified factory applied serial number on the frame. So I don't understand where that would be in violation of the rule about removing or changing the serial number. There would still be an original unmodified copy of the serial number on the gun. Makes no sense. But then how many rules devised by the government really have any connection to good sense?
