ThanksĪll the codes above refer to the barrel codes, not the serial number.ġ950 TO APPROX 1968:NO SERIAL NUMBER PREFIXġ968 TO PRESENT: LETTERS USED (IN SEQUENCE) If your firearm does have a serial number, if you will call or email to the address below, the serial number and model number we can determine the approximate age of your firearm. I'm trying to figure out when it was made and from what I read on a site it stated the first letter would be the month and then the first two numbers would be the year (so mine would be Feb 1979?!?).

They resumed stamping the date code on the barrel on 10/1/01. They continued to mark the date code on the end flap of the shipping box.
(*) On 8/9/99, stopped stamping the barrels with the date code. One needs to be sure that the barrel is original to the gun before trusting the Barrel Code listing, above. Using these barrel codes to date a shotgun is somewhat unreliable, as shotgun barrels are often interchanged at random. Using barrel codes (such as those listed above) to date the manufacture are reliable on Remington rifles, as the company rarely changed barrels on a customer's rifle. With a serial number that dates to 1943, the Remington Rand in the Vault has what collectors consider Type 3 slide markings, a very crisp FJA Ordnance inspector’s mark of Col. The following letters correspond to the months of the yearī - L - A - C - K - P - O - W - D - E - R - Xġ - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12 Remington's manufactured after 1921 have a code located on the left side of the barrel near the frame that identifies the year and month of manufacture. I could be way off on all of this, but that’s what all my investigations to date on this subject have left me to conclude.Here is some information that you can get from you serial number after 1921 I’d bet that you would be closer to the date of your machine's manufacture if you used the England-made list instead.
Given that there are English, Dutch and French number lists, my theory makes a lot of sense. I suspect what’s missing is an additional list of Canadian serial numbers, one that unfortunately hasn't been published as of yet (at least not that I’ve found). I've had a few issues dating my Canadian-made Remington models because the numbers never really matched or made sense with those posted on the Database. Each one that I own that was built in Canada uses the 'C' prefix, just as every model I have that was built in England has an 'E' prefix.

The 'C' prefix does mean Canadian made, at least that's what I've been able to determine based on the serial numbers of my Remington machines. I assumed that you used the American-made serial number list to come up with 1945? If you look - as an example - at the list of serial numbers for machines made in England you'll see that their serial numbers (post 1952) are much lower I suspect that it’s a similar case for machines made in Canada. It looks like you have a Super Riter model to me, but I would have pegged it as being a mid-'50s to early-'60s model based on its looks.
