On the lattigo keeper
It's the model number.
I'm looking for the date of a J.C. Higgins bicycle with the serial number 705495
Serial numbers on rifles and shotguns were not required until 1968. Most JC Higgins guns made prior to that never HAD a serial number- and yes, it is legal.
when was the j. c. Higgins model 41 serial number 103,19780 manufactured
The 583.880 is not the serial #, that is the Sears part number. The serial number will be on the other side of the frame.
Depends on the serial number which was not provided
jc Higgins saddle mod. 1225 ser. no. 9512 what year is it.
your shotgun was made in 1947 guns made back then were not required to have a serial no. It was not until the Federal gun control act of 1968 that rifles or shotguns were required by federal law to have a serial number.J C Higgins brand guns were sold from 1945 to 1962 You will never see a J C Higgins rifle or shotgun with a factory serial number.
what is a J C Higgins Model 583.9 20 gauge worth
Prior to 1968, the law did not require serial numbers on rifles and shotguns. Since it costs money to serialize firearms, inexpensive guns usually did not have one.
Rifles and shotguns were not required to HAVE a serial number until the 1968 Gun Control Act. Many of the J C Higgins branded guns sold by Sears were made before then. And yes, it is perfectly legal in the US to own a gun that never HAD a serial number- but illegal to remove a serial number.
J C Higgins was a store brand name used by Sears on sporting goods from 1908 until 1962. We cannot tell maker, model and condition from a serial number- and it is likely that is a production run number, not a serial number. You will need a hands on review by a gunsmith or shotgun collector. Most in average condition run around $150 or so.
