The Sureshot shotgun was made by Cooey Machine and Arms company of Cobourg, Ontario, Canada. Cooey was purchased by Winchester-Western and produced rifles and shotguns under the name of Cooey, Winchester-Cooey, and Winchester.
I have just acquired a cooey model 840 western Canada limited and I have done some research and talked to a few gunsmiths and from the info i have received a top-notch "perfect" model 840 will only run up to $275.00. If i was you i would keep it. It's a great little gun.

Winchester bought Cooey in 1961.
COOEY was a Canadian firearms manufacturer in business from 1931-61 in Cobourg, Ontario. Winchester bought them and produced/sold firearms in Canada. The Cooey 82 single shot was a WWII training rifle made for the miitary during the war.

Around 1967 is my best guess. Canada did not require serial numbers until 1961. That was the year that Winchester bought Cooey, and continued manufacture until the mid 1970s. Unfortunately we do not have a public database on Cooey SNs.
Cooey made the sure shot but was bought out by Winchester so its a Winchester cooey manufacture Hope that helps
Model 75 was made from 1931-1961 by Cooey (Canada) and then bought out by Winchester who made them as Model 750s until 1978. If you have no serial number that is due to the change in the Manufacturing laws. 1968 and after should have serial numbers.
Well, a model 39 .22 implies to me that it may be a Cooey or Winchester/Cooey. The only thing is Cooey never put serial numbers on their rifles. Winchester did after they bought Cooey around WW II. So therefore I would say post 1964 for your rifle.
no, not in canada
