Where are they?

So...  That makes your number a production number and its NOT 116.... Its 911.   

Ok , then either way, 116 or 911, it could in theory belong to a 3 or 4 digit serial M59 production number, or amoungst 30+ other rifles with repeating production numbers.

No...  That exact location is where the assembly numbers are.  And its 911

Bottom of my LB serial 080 having an ep # matching the barrel number....  Which is a very low barrel #.  Further evidence the LBs were first.  59/66 guns have pretty high lug numbers. 

Now that is interesting...  Very interesting indeed!

Great its 911    ,,,, but still no answer on

it could in theory belong to a 3 or 4 digit serial M59 with a 911 production number, or amongst 30+ otherlater rifles with repeating production numbers.

since "assembly" numbers don't represent actual production numbers, and "production" numbers are way outta whack vs. the serial numbers
and if by chance it possibly belongs to a 3 or 4 digit serial, say M59 with the serial #100-#9999, we now circle around for our final descent back to my original question, 

where are they?

Those are not serial numbers... Its just that simple.  I wish they were so you/we would have some answers as to where they are.

I didn't say it was a serial number, I'm off that tirade, I'm on to a new one now, keep up ...........but rifle assembly number 911 could have possibly been rifle serial #2345 or #6789, then again it coulda been serial #12345 or even #67890

[Loose}{Cannon]

Yes..
