C96 / C12 Broomhandle / Re: Earliest known C96 in 9mm?

Thanks for the input and welcome! I am in fact the owner of #9 and #46, which is kind of the reason I was asking. 
When you mention there are earlier C96s in 9mm but not Red-9s do you mean converted/modified pistols?


Thanks again!

C96 / C12 Broomhandle / Earliest known C96 in 9mm?

Hello!

New to the forum; I actually registered just to ask specifically about the early "Red-9"s. James D Julia held an auction in late 2014 where they sold a  worn but decent 9mm C96, serial# 49 (http://jamesdjulia.com/item/1277-369/) with "...one of the lowest known SNs". What is the actual lowest number known? I have two that are lower than that, one is single digit, and it got me thinking: Is #1 or #2 known to exist somewhere? Any idea?
