Anybody have a gun blue book or similar?
« on: May 11, 2008, 05:13:50 PM »
I'm trying to figure out what year a shotgun is based off the serial number and I can't find anything online. If anybody has one that could help me out that would be awesome.

or


0360428 made in 1924
0524848 made in 1927
06335XX made in 1931
1614891 made in 1956

that will give you an around-about build date.

Thanks. That link says the manufacture date is 1953. My fiance is going to take hunters ed this summer and her grandfather gave her this shotgun today. He said it has only been shot once. A good cleaning and it should look brand new.
