I believe that your Winchester model 101 was made in July of 1971.
How much is a model 101 12 gauge with the serial number 14 5085 worth
The Winchester model 52B was made in 3 different models from 1940-1947.If yours does not say made in japan(reissue of the model 52B in 1993) then I would say by your serial number that it was made somtime between 1945-1946.
I need to ask if this rifle was made by Browning?The 2 letters in the serial number would indicate that this rifle was made in the year 1998,as marked by Browning.Winchester never has used the serial number system that your serial number demonstrates.If this was a Browning made rifle it was probably made by Miroku of Japan and would be so marked on the rifle.
With a serial number preceded with an "S" , I'm betting it was SKB of Japan
The model number is 117
Because it was probably made in Japan.
R series are made in Japan 2004 - 2005.
Check the serial number at proofhouse.com
Japan gave the serial killers hitory with 12 serial killers to date.
YOu must provide the serial number.
It means that your gun was built in 1997 in Japan.
Looks like made in Japan, 1996.
