That is definitely how they were numbered during that time. There are 2 problems with that method. The first one is what you have. The numbers wear off of the tape. The second problem is the piece of tape can obviously peel off the box. This happens a lot too. You definitely got a great deal. To me, you either got a free gun and paid for the box, or got a free box and paid for the gun. Thanks for sharing.
