You would need to be more specific. You could be referring to the serial number, the caliber, a model number, armory/arsenal markings (in the case of surplus military arms), etc.
Need to know the model and serial range for a real answer. Also, Springfield Armory made some early Bush length rifles and called them "M1A-A1." There are no "M1A1" M14 clones. I think you just mean M1A. Depending on what you've got, the used value could be quite a range.
Don't know exactly, however it was probably made recently. Springfield made the first US Government contract version of this .45 cal pistol (model 1911). However, Springfield did not paticipate in the next production contract with the modified version of the 1911, known as the A1. Colt & others did. So that means that Springfield, on its own, has produced the A1 version (a very popular version) for sale to the public, decades later then when the original A1 first appeared. The serial numbers that begin with 'ww' probably mean that it is not a military issue weapon. I'm not an expert in this area, please consult with one. Check with gunbroker.com Hope this helps a little.
The serial numbers on the back of a watch are there for the customer to know that the watch is real. The serial numbers can be looked up at the retailers.
By downloading serial numbers I assume you mean a list of years and serial numbers? And for the record, only John Deere dealers have this capability to ensure that serial numbers are not forged or altered.
Usually caliber and/or serial numbers.
Most of the numbers are the serial number.
Serial number
It can be part of the sn, it can mean experimental, it can mean duplicate.
There is no such thing as a Springfield '62. You probably mean a '63. In this case, the number refers to 1863. Therefore the rifled musket would be 145 years old. The "Springfield" designation means that it was produced at the National Armory in Springfield, Massachusetts. The '63 was the most common longarm issued to soldiers during the Civil War, although at the time it was not generally differentiated from the '61, because it is almost completely identical.
