Not much to go on. I would guess you have an Ithaca Model 49 rifle. Is it a single shot that looks like a Winchester Model 94? These rifles were made from 1961 to 1979. I'm not sure where to have you look for the serial number, but even if you found it I am not aware of any listings of serial numbers that would be able to tell you in what year your gun was made.
Your rifle serial number 2231046 was manufactured in 1957. If you would like an appraisal of your rifle contact me at garyodell551@gmail.com
you would date it by the serial number on the rifle.
Impossible to answer without the serial number and the maker.
In order to provide you with the correct answer,I would need to know what model of Winchester rifle we are talking about?I would also need to know what caliber is the rifle along with the serial number that you provided.
If you would provide the serial number to your rifle,I would be happy to supply you with the year of manufacture.
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.
