Age of gun from serial number?

[alecvg]

Is there a way to tell what year my Remington 870 Wingmaster was made by the serial number?

serial number is on the receiver. Write or call Remington they can do it.

My 1957 Remington Speedmaster 552 did not have a serial number, so I looked up the barrel code.

Thankyou for the link, I figured it out.
