The Baikal MP-153 shotgun, with the serial number 1115358104, was manufactured in Russia. The production date can often be determined by the serial number's range, but specific production year information might not be readily available without access to the manufacturer's records or a detailed database. Generally, Baikal MP-153 shotguns were produced from the early 2000s onwards, so it's likely from that period. For precise identification, consulting a Baikal expert or firearms historian could provide more accurate details.
Remington now imports the Baikal shotguns under their 'Spartan' brand. Barrels for the "Remington" Spartan SPR-453 are the same as your Baikal.
