I am sure the first rifles made using black powder did not have a serial number engraved.
Antique rifles without a serial number do exist. I am however unsure what the law state about collector pieces. Logically one can not force a serial number onto a piece that originally was made without one.
There is a strong likelihood that it does not have one. Serial numbers were not required by law on rifles and shotguns until 1968. If the shotgun is a muzzle loader that uses loose powder and shot, it is considered an antique firearm under Federal law, and is not required to have a serial number.

List of sniper rifles in Black Ops:L96AWDragunovWA2000M40PSG1
Connecticut Valley Arms Inc. (CVA) black powder rifles typically have serial numbers that can help date the firearm. However, to determine the exact year associated with serial number 0099933, you would need to consult CVA's production records or a reliable source on CVA firearms. Generally, CVA began operations in the 1970s, so a serial number in that range likely corresponds to the production period between the late 1970s and early 2000s. For precise dating, contacting CVA directly or referencing a specific serial number guide would be necessary.
Your Black Shadow as made in 1998. No idea about production numbers.
The assault rifles in Black Ops are: M16 Enfield M14 FAMAS Galil AUG FAL AK-47 Commando G11
Jukar indicates a modern reproduction of a muzzleloader- but there were pistols and rifles- and you don't tell us what you have, or condition. These are fairly low cost- rifles are about $150, pistols about $80
Your rifle was made ROUGHLY 1925-1965. These were untility grade rifles, intended for hunting or plinking. They made great boys rifles due to the very slender wrist of the stock. Savage/Stevens/Springfield was at one time the largest gun maker in the US, and made several thousands of the 86 series. Rifles made late in the production had a black tip painted on the forearm. Serial numbers were not required by law on rifles and shotguns until 1968. Many of these guns were also made under hardware store brand names, such as Gambles Store. I have 3 different versions, different grades of wood in sthe stocks, and my grandkids love them.
