I need more info than just a serial number to figure when it was made. The model designation should be on the top tang, behind the hammer. If there is a sight there, you'll need to remove the two screws to see the model.
Also need rollstamp info from the barrel to determine age, and if it has a black & white bullseye in the buttstock bottom rear.
