Serial number and/or features 218748
You can tell how old your Ithaca gun is by the model and serial number
The model number of the gun and make along with the serial number usually will determine the age of a gun.
You need to tell us more about the "gun license" and for what area. There are many different gun licenses.
No way to tell without make and model. Serial numbers are not unique to only one gun.
No way to tell from a serial number only.
Need to know the make, then you can call the manufacturer and they will gladly tell you.
Serial number, features, original bill of sale.
